New Mode7 script / Neo Mode 7 script

[holloway]

Jesus, just use a normal event. There is absolutely no need for an even to do that.

Okay, I've got around the issue I had by setting the map to a Mode7 map on an angle of 0 degrees. Works fine that way.

hum ^^ just an idea, as i don't know exactly work this script :p
for the rotation that everybody wants....

basically you rotate the map bitmap of the angle you want to create a new picture. and then you apply the mode7 on that new picture.^^

But it only work for the ground.... ^^'
But i know a french script that generate a map rotated by angle of 90?... for the default map view. keeping the relief as it should be.

 

[Xilef]

In theory rotation of 90 degrees would be quite simple. Just twist the map around so the view angle is different. A problem with the upright trees etc might arise though, but once conquering 90, 180 and 270 degree map views all the in between angles should soon follow.
I hope someone is actually working on map rotation.

xD ahahah, after searching for the script i'm talking about...
... MGCaladtogel is the author of this script... xD
feel stupid ...

I didn't have much time lately to work on my script, but I add the flat-events support.
One difficulty for map rotation is that we can rotate sprites but not bitmaps...
With pre-created maps with rotation (pictures), there is no problem, but it is really not practical.

When I tried to create a mode7 script some times ago, I had the same problem. I don't think there's an easy answer. A way would be to implement a Bitmap class rotation function in C and compile it into a dll. Another way would be to compose a picture of the map, writing it to png, and use an external binary (Imagemagick !) to rotate the pictures... Not really practical indeed.

 

[trebor777]

^^ do a copy of the map bitmap into a fresh new sprite :p and here you go:p.
isn't it?

 

[rataime]

You won't be able to get back the rotated bitmap, so you'll need to reimplement the tileset with sprites. I believe some people tried that method, only to fail due to lag.

 

[shadowmanrpg]

Very nice. I love to see cool scripts like these...

hey, when i try to use a call script from an event with this: $scene.spriteset.tilemap.mode7_set_p(50)
i get an error. maybe it's because the complete line doesnt fit, and it cuts...is there a way to make this shorter? or split it, so it won't give error

 

[Asmodeanmage]

Takneo i cant help you with that sorry but i do have a question

Does this support custom animated autotiles? Because they are only 4 frames but it wont display them as animated.

YES i put [A] int the map title! it works fine without mode07 so..... just wondering if im doing something wrong

Oh yeah btw this script is FREAKING OFF THE HOOK!!!

Hello, I am French and I have discovered this forum to google, I have a question, when I past this script before "main" in a new project, and after defined the tileset and name the map "Worlmap", the project crash after his execution, i don't understand what is the probleme, I use the lastest version of this script.

I haven't raported error, just a crash of the game, thank for you response.

 

[WeissRaben]

Uhm...this is a really heavy script, so, if your map is too big, the script won't succeed in creating the map and it will crash.
Usually, world maps ARE big

 

[Juuhou]

^^^ That kinda defeats a main purpose of the script though eh? To get a nice looking world map, you have to have a big map so when you reach an end of a continent or something, it doesnt show the next landmass which would be on the other side of the map or a black blank area. Meh, Ive just experimented with the Mode7 script so Im not sure how to make it work successfully in a game yet. ^_^ This is a wonderful script however, maybe some optimization could excel it, I dunno. I love this script though. :P

 

[ShadowKirby500]

I really reckon you should add support for height maps.

Thats all i suggest

 

[dams999]

I explain, the name of the map is "Worldmap" to use this script, that written in the script to name the map "Worldmap".
But with a map of 15x20 or 20x40 pixel, i have the same crash.

It is possible to have the Link of a d?mo with this script who function ?

 

[WeissRaben]

Uhm...what angle do you use? And what are the tags used in the map name?

 

[PX]

really cool skript

 

[hugopkmn]

@Takneo, just cut it at '$scene.spriteset.tilemap.' and you should be fine
I found a bug(at least to me), the game crashes if you move from a non-Mode7 map to a Mode7 map, I also found a fix for it.

[B]1262[/B]    if $scene.spriteset != nil [I][COLOR=Green]and $scene.spriteset.tilemap.is_a?(Tilemap_mode7)[/COLOR][/I]

PS. 1262 is the line, please don't copy it, the green text is the fix for the bug.
