[XP] Mode 7 (by MGCaladtogel)

[Lost_Hope]

ok thx

[Lost_Hope]

nvm it works!

nvm it works!

It worked for me too with a large map. The only issue was that going far too north resulted in an error at Line 215, but that wasn't any concern for me. Now there's really nothing else to do here...*Zips away*

Is the compatibility plugin for B-ABS completed yet? I'm getting an error in class Spriteset_Map when I try it . . .

man this is a great script, i never used any of the mode 7's ive found but this one looked so much better i decided to finally get it, i love it, you even got a layer to stand up to simulate objects like trees, i dont even remember the snes ever doing that

config looks a bit complicated but i guess its worth learning for this awesome script


i give it 7 thumbs up

[Zeldaknight]

Hmm . . . it's working fine now. Haven't fully tested it though.

[Mightylink]

hmm, after having lots of fun with the demo i finally decided to use it, i didnt even add any maps to it yet and it crashes when i try to even run my game <_<



I placed it above blizzards scripts and under the game scripts. What am I doing wrong? I'm not using any ABS or other map modifying scripts.

[Zeldaknight]

How I solved that problem (I think) is you need to have a set of commands set up in the script or the map name for the map you are using. You could try that . . .

[Mightylink]

ya there was already 2 default ones set up

[Zeldaknight]

No no what I mean is if you have a map named MAP001 then it will work if you set up one called 'MAP001' or one that works with that map. I haven't tested it with heaps of maps but thats what I did.

[Mightylink]

Set up the name of my world map, still same error, I don't think its to do with map names.

[Zeldaknight]

Hmm weird. Try turning mode 7 off in the config and then add the code for turning mode 7 on in your world map name.

[Calintz]

I thought that you said that a Mode 7 script was nearly impossible in your one thread??

[Blizzard]

For the average scripter, yes. For somebody who knows how to do it, it's not a problem. Not even the new rotating NeoMode 7 isn't. The thing is just that it will create lag regardless. Bigger maps usually become unplayable.

[Calintz]

Oh...I understand.
So, you said something about using this Mode 7 in Chaos Project!?

[Blizzard]

Yeah, I thought about using it for the world map, but I won't do it after all. I'd need to recalibrate the script so it would work with my anti-lag and multi-map slicer for the world map. That would be quite some work.

[Calintz]

Hmm...
Not worth it, huh??

True be told. That really would have been something to look forward to.

[Blizzard]

Still, I might put it together after all for Beta 2 if I find a "better" world map tileset and rework the 2 world maps completely..

[Calintz]

It's an awe-inspiring idea.

I simply think "IF YOU HAVE THE EXTRA TIME TO WASTE," then it is certainly something you should do, otherwise...eh.

[Blizzard]

Exactly my point.
