Is there a better way to make sprites?

[Annsoft]

Is there a way to take my 2-d grphics below and turn them to a 3-d pseudo veiw?

[LazyCoder]

What's a 3d pseudo view??? You talking about pre-rendered 3d graphics?

EDIT: OH I know what you mean. The Mode7ex object can do this, but I can't remember if it's been converted to MMF2 or not... I think it has...

[Dynamite]

Yes it has.

[Random]

Maybe you mean isometric? How about you show us an of example what you want..

[MechatheSlag]

Perspective object?

[James]

I think Mode 7 Ex would work well for this- you'll need to tweak the settings quite a bit though.

If Annsoft is talking about something like this: http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2335/2066183458_7bf5946f9b_o.jpg

then the only way is to make the art for that perspective in the first place. Also, for Isometric perspective3 like this, the game would need to be programmed for this view in the first place as up and down are actually diagonals...

Its very possible to do this with MMF2, but you'll almost be starting from scratch to redo it in this perspective.

Well said, HM...

Have you ever seen pacman Worlds? It is a pretty fun game:

it's "sorta" isometric, (the "up and downs" aren't diagonal)


If you use this approach, Annsoft,you might not have to change as much of your existing game...

Isometric!

Wow i aint done that in a while, the last isometric game i made was tutti fruti.

All you need is to be veeeeeery good at designing sprites, thats it.

Its a real pain though, but with patience, can be done.

[Annsoft]

I wasn't talking about that... I wasn't sure what I wanted but if somone could tech me to use the mode7ex graphic engine that would be useful...
@Clickerguy: Yes I was talking about that... Is there an extention that is easy to use to make that?
