Hi,

Can anyone suggest the best way to emulate mode 7 using blitzmax and opengl ?

I know this can be done to a high standard as Torque2D has an add on pack that adds this to the stock 2D engine tgb kart kit.

All ideas welcome and appreciated.

Thanks

-Mic

PS: You can google a specific site using "site:blitzbasic.com mode7"

It's really just the drawing of a bunch of tiles like a 2d tilemap, except that the tile layer has been `folden down` by rotating it around the X axis, and also you need a perspective projection.

Okay thanks guys.

@Arowx

The link you provided was extremely helpful. I did try searching before posting but nothing of use came back so I wonder if I mistyped or something.

Cheers
