Isometry
« on: January 19, 2011, 05:07:26 pm »
Read the screenie :P
Spoiler For just in case your browser doesn't support .gifs (i.e. IE8):
Its an isometric graphics engine made in Axe, with an awesome demo map.

Soon its gonna support scenery, and the map should probably be compressed somehow.

I already have an awesome tree sprite.

This is fantastic, it reminds me of Habbo, which sucks, unlike this! Source?

justasec, I'll extract it from my calc :P

horribly uncomressed map data, I know.

ISOENG is the executable

What are all those comments in the beginning of the code?

It looks nice, though.

Thats amazing!  I tried to attempt something like this a while back, but I failed, although I might be able to do it now...

This reminds me of the RayCaster engine, now we can start making stuff out of this, thanks looksitan00b, not you, though.

Hrm, I like it! Um, is your emulator not on 100%? If it is set higher, the .gif will seem slower.

in prgmISO, thats the code for a random map generator. simply uncomment that, and change 'Str1->M' to 'L1->M'
in prgmTIMG, its so I don't forget what the images are.

umm.. all I cnanged from default was the autosave name and set the .gif framerate to 9. yeah, it is pretty slow.

now that I think about it, I probably should be drawing vertical lines rather than looping through 16x16 'pt-Mask('s

Ah, okee. It might be just the OS on the homescreen thing. Still that is really cool! I wish I knew Axe... And you say you have tree made already?!? Does that mean you are making a 3D tilemap engine?! That could be really cool!

I temporarily removed the part that draws the tile all the way to the bottom, and look at the speed potential!  Floating blocks FTW.

Trees officially work, at the cost of an extra byte per tile.  Gotta get some compression now.

Anybody know a good way to draw lots of vertical lines quickly and safely?  Since the tiles snap to bytes, I could simply calculate the proper bytes and write $8181 to them.

I'm still waiting for somebody to tell me where I pulled that map from :P

Nice!   I think it looks better without drawing tiles all the way down.  ;)
is this at 15mHz or 6mHz?

6mhz ;D

Yeah, it does look pretty cool with just floating blocks, but not for what I eventually want it to do.  I eventually want it to not draw so many vertical lines... they're a little annoying.

Oh my g. That is really looking cool! Um, I am not familiar with axe, but I know how to do it in regular assembly (making vertical lines). But yeah, are you familiar with making tilemap data? Each byte can be a tile. Like, if the byte is 00, draw nothing, if it is 01, draw just the tile, if it is 02, draw a tree, if it is 03, draw a tile and a tree. Pretty much, if the number is odd, draw a tile and a pic, if it is even, draw a pic. I might be able to make some random opcodes...

How about using the Line function? As for compression, how about X,Y, and Z coordinates? More later, homework time.
