Anyway, I'm not sure if image manipulation like that is even possible, you will probably need isometric versions of your graphics instead. http://davince.tengudev.com/ Still a member of Ectoprods!

The Cecilizer You Done Got Cecilized Registered 3/19/2005 Points 1602	6th January, 2008 at 9:40:05 PM - oh i know. im not talking image manipulation. the angle is like 35.??? degrees. not sure. im talking simple math and coordinates. _1 2 3 4 5 1_\|_\|_\|_\|_\| 2_\|_\|_\|_\|_\| 3_\|_\|_\|_\|_\| 4_\|_\|_\|_\|_\| 5_\|_\|_\|_\|_\| there has to be some way to project a standard coordinate system onto a system like an isometric one. ive been messing around with some stuff but none of it works right. i will be using isometric pixel art i just need a mathematical way to place them onto an isometric like grid from say, an array. which is x, y. >> http://www.cecilectomy.com <<

The Cecilizer You Done Got Cecilized Registered 3/19/2005 Points 1602	7th January, 2008 at 3:35:22 AM - very beautiful they are indeed. well i got it working. heres a pic! just simple sh*t nothing special. >> http://www.cecilectomy.com <<

The Cecilizer You Done Got Cecilized Registered 3/19/2005 Points 1602	7th January, 2008 at 5:53:31 PM - well heres a screeny of how it draws it and how the coordinate system works for the isometric grid. if anyone's interested and understands c++ ill post my source and an .exe >> http://www.cecilectomy.com <<
