Don't give up; I'm pretty sure you can find a way. GM is really inefficient from when I used it. If you use low-res textures you might be able to pull it off on calc.

I know. GM is really inefficient with almost everything it can do, but 5 seconds for only one triangle is a very long time, even for GM. And for a resonable gameplay, there should be at least 5 fps, and that while there wil be abouth 150 triangles be drawn. that means that it should be abouth 1000 times as fast as GM (I calculated it), so i really doubt that this is possible.

First I think you should see if you can draw 150 solid triangles at 5FPS, and after you get that working you can start on textures :) That way you gain experience and can work better on textures ^^

Well, to give you an upperbound of what is possible on the calculator. I made this:

I got this running with about 20 polygons per frame at 15 fps. That's 300 polygons per second. Now, it wasn't full screen, but it was in grayscale, so we can probably call that an even trade and say I would have gotten 300 polygons per second full screen in black and white.


You want to go for textured polygons, I would imagine that textured polygons take around 4 times as long, (complete guess), so you could probably pull off 75 polygons per second with well optimized code. At that rate, you would be getting 15 polygons at 5 fps. Of course to get this though, you're going to have to make some seriously optimized texturing routines, but I bet you could do it.

But, what I am trying to say is that polygon rendering on the calculator is totally possible, so don't give up.

whoa, that looks really good. Is it raycasting, mode-7 or 'real' 3D?

back on topic:
how can i calculate the fps? When i try to optimise it, i would like to know if it has any effect.

Anyway, i really think i'm going to give up with textured triangles, and try textured quads instead. This should make it faster as quads can be fully done in 2D, so perspective correction won't be necessary.

Either Calc84 or Runer presented a tilemapping 3d engine while back that had simple textures. I can't seem to find the screenshots, though.

has it got a routine to draw a textured quad?

You can just use two triangles for that, but I guess a dedicated routine could be more optimized.

I'm not sure why you would want to draw quads as well, since having more than one routine is going to slow down your code.

draw_sprite draws the sprite at the given location. Ignore the 2nd argument.
draw_point_color draws a point at the given coordinates with the given color
draw_getpixel returns the color of the given pixel.

Only check the first part of the code (before the else in the middle), becouse that's the part that is run with a triangle with that shape.

Sorry that I'm asking for help again, but i really can't get it right.

Messing around with the code for a whole day hasn't solved anything, so i decided to bump this topic, hoping for a solution.

Ummm...that link is to a raycaster, which renders stuff quite differently from a polygon engine.
