Mode 7

[asmodeus]

Can anybody make a script that displays a 3d floor (mode 7: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mode_7)?
I mean that, that is in super mario kart or f-zero for the snes. If anybody can show me a script, that works, I'll give him 3 points!

I have done my research on that as well.
But you'd be looking more at ray casting, there is a demo for this already, but hard to understand and the other problem is that it's only for walls.
You'll need to search on "Floor ray casting"

I am trying to make a code that simulates something similar, but it does not have rotation and I need to read the image from an exterior file.
Here is the code I am trying to transform:

Code: Select all

x=if(above(y,.0),x/5/abs(y)*3,0);
y=if(above(y,.0),-.03/y+1,y);

(Note: this code is from an AVS I made on winamp, so that's why it has a different syntax then GE)
If I get any success, I will give it to everyone

Well, I have got another idea to make that...wait, I'll make it's demo

Here it's
Well, this demo is about front view racing in the dark tunnel...

Oh, like an FPS Game! That's what he means! Only without a gun!

Also think about F-Zero man!!!! A real great mode 7 example

@GameAGogo, this seems like an opportunity to reuse a bit of your 3D demo. Instead of resizing Mario, you could resize tiles from the background.

[Game A Gogo]

well, it would be a totally different method, as all pixel are scaled differently

F-ZERO ROCKS!

[Game A Gogo]

that's why I have it on my laptop and play it at school 8D

[supa-tails]

Lol, me too, I have ROMS of a whole lot of N64 games on my jump drive and I play them on the school computers
