I mean a 3D RPG using mode7 i don't recall.... you don't need to use mode7 to make a 2D rpg so i figured people knew what i was talking about... thinking is like pong, it's easy, but you miss sometimes.

Use the OpenGl extension, it's easy to make FPS style games.

I'll try to learn to use the OpenGL object, it has the following advantages: Much smoother movement, even in hi-res! Good hardware support. Loading external files to keep the file size down. No thick pixels! So, anyone know a good OpenGL tut? Old member (~2004-2007).

(The release date for that on the Amiga was 1995, btw) I believe Pilotwings used Mode 7 in the most complicated way, with tilting and rolling. It's processor intensive but possible to do at a decent speed (as SNES emulators have already proved) - there were bottlenecks with MMF's drawing engine which caused the problem, but it could've been overcome relatively easily. Anyone know if it's possible to get the Mode 7 style with a fully 3D scene? n/a
