It's not yet possible on ndless

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL :P

You already have Doom on Nspire. Mario Kart is nothing.

And also :

ROFL
Only the Gameboy can be emulated (which supports mode 7, but only mario kart: super circuit (which is crap) runs)

I hate Doom, Wolfenstein 3d.. Something like Monkey Island would be cool (OT, I know)

What do you mean ? It's not an emulator. http://www.omnimaga.org/index.php?board=26.0

Oh, I see. But you can see here that the Gameboy is not the only platform capable of Mode 7.

I see, F-Zero uses Mode 7 too..
It's way faster than yours, is it asm?

Welcome in the world of ASM.

I think I'll try to make something similar, but seeing my ASM skills, I'm afraid that I won't get anything until a year or two D:

If you make it your goal, it would be a great exercise to increase your ASM skillz.

Yeah, but considering how low are my skills, I don't even know if I'll finish it someday :P

But I'll try anyway.

I see you have been asking about fixed-point maths. There really isnt a great deal to mode7 when its broken down, i rekon you could do it even if it isnt super optimized to begin with.

My suggestion is to become more familiar with the hardware at a low level (LCD access, memory structure etc) and also making small test programs for fixed-point operations (to simulate the individual aspects of a mode7 engine) before finally bringing it together.

Yeah, of course I didn't think of getting directly into Mode 7 :P

Oh, I see. But you can see here that the Gameboy is not the only platform capable of Mode 7.

The Game Boy and Game Boy Color don't support Mode 7 as far as I know. The Game Boy Advance, on the other hand, does. And if a platform like the Nspire can run Doom, then it can easily run a Mode 7 engine (in fact there is one for Ndless 1.0, which is very smooth).

On the 83+ Mode 7 is fully possible since Calc84maniac did it, as shown above, but not an entire Doom port. However, Axe is much slower than ASM for it since it's a much higher level language. I bet there can be speed improvements, though, but nowhere close to what ASM can achieve. (Unless someone makes an Axiom)

Back on topic, this looks quite nice Matrefeytontias. You might want to make the lines surrounding the road thicker on the small map, though (so it doesn't look like a dotted line at times)
