  • Here the Construct 3 Version: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1DbMLxEq8TsQIuFGb91gOBfoTjm2JhE6G

    The construct 3 version messes up as soon as I add another sprite. It "includes" the sprite in the mode 7 effect

  • * Fixed horizontal fish-eye distortion. Updated all example projects.

    * Switched C3 ray casting to use built-in line of sight behavior (much faster)

    * Switched C3 version to built-in functions for much more readable code

  • Can someone make a C3 version of this? If we had mode7 and mouselock for c3 I could do some real dammage!

  • I have a set of well-commented capx and c3p templates that implement ray casting with basic real time lighting, scrolling textures, doors with locks, enemies, fps guns, bullet holes and blood effects...

    Videos on how to use the template, 24 page book... couple of videos that take you from a blank project to a ray casting level with working doors.

  • I tried using Mode 7 eight ways from Sunday and still couldn't get the POV right. It either rotates uneven with my walls, or scrolls uneven with their movement. I got it pretty close with DeadWood Hotel, but still not right.

  • I did this with basic ray casting and the mode 7 plugin for construct 2.

    It's great, but I can't figure out quite how to get it to line up exactly with the walls.

  • This is amazing! How do you zsort? Is it like everything higher is in front of everything lower, and then sort by z? Basically sorting by y then z?

  • For which layer? I tried "force own texture" on the space layer and nothing changed.

  • OK I have an advanced lighting question (advanced for me anyhow):

    The only way I know how to do lighting is to have a dark layer on top of the playfield and add white elements to it with "destination over" rendering.. (or something like that)

    What I am trying to do is have lighting that only affects a middle layer and not the background.

    The background is space. So I only want the lighting to affect the spaceship sprites... not the stars and stuff behind them...

    Any ideas?

  • Thanks! The ray to wall-height uses the cosine of the angle times the ray width basically to get the straight perpendicular line from the screen.

    There's a variable that sets the wall height relative to the distance value and that gives you different perspective looks. It's one of those things to play with to get the "feel" you want.
