[Effect] mode7

VERY NICE!

I sense some pseudo3d on the horizon!

What makes you think that? ;p

Nice! I started to mess with the same idea some time ago, but ended up very busy and didn't have the time to finish it.

I also made a proof of concept for a raycast shader that would work great with this. It still needs a lot of polishing to improve precision, correct some distortions and achieve better performance, but it proved feasible:

Raycast Shader Demo

Controls:

WASD / Arrows - move

Mouse - rotate view

Left Click - draw at cursor

Right Click - erase at cursor

Mouse Wheel - change "angle" of view

M - show/hide map

*There's no mouse lock, so if you rotate too much to one side you need to rotate back to aim correctly. Also the draw/erase only works when you click over the window.

Hopefully I will finish it someday, then we can combine it with mode7 for old school FPSs.

Animmaniac, looks nice man! I can see Wolfenstein (although I'd prefer Dungeon Master) clones pouring out if you ever release the code to that ;p

Thanks dude.

Only issue I see at the moment is that things in the distance are not filtered nicely (I think it's called mipmapping.)

Awesome! I totally missed this. The star of my game has been in and out of the hospital with a nasty flu, which turned into an ear infection and now a mystery virus :(

Thanks for the awesome plugin! Can't wait to try it...if I can only get a little time now between work and Maddi being sick.

It only took me 2 hours to get the flying level up and running in the CC version of Go!Go!Maddi! Hopefully I can do it the same way!!

Again thank you very much!!!

This is really neat and performs well! But something concerns me; how would someone map sprites onto this to follow the pseudo 3D? this would open up a world of possibilities if we could do that

How would i make it so its only a strip down the center, like a road? The problem is it repeats this in the horizontal, so you see multiple strips. I tried putting 1, but it doesn't show it.

The math is escaping me at the moment but to map a sprite to this would require a perspective transform. Google has a lot on the subject, but it may take some tinkering to get the transform to match.

PixelPalette

You could modify the fx so that you get the image to repeat in only a line by putting // in front of one of these lines:

xx=clamp(xx, 0.0, 1.0/scale_x); 
yy=clamp(yy, 0.0, 1.0/scale_y);

R0J0 is it possible to reduce that shimmering effect you see near the horizon, or is that beyond this effect?

OMG MAN!!!!

This is simply INCREDIBLE!

Thanksssss sooo muuch!!!!!!

Great Job!!!!
