For my current project, I need to make it so that the player can go higher or lower depending on how high or low the heightmap is. However, the Mode 7 engine I'm currently using does not support that at all.

I assume I'll need to change the gravity in order to make this work. How do I do so?

Gravity?
What engine are you using?

It's entirely possible to adjust the vertical position of an object on screen in relation to it's position on a height map. It just depends on how the data is stored.

If you can retrieve the height value of a certain spot on the height map then all that's next is to decide where the object is located on the plane relative to the height map.

Of course one needs to know how the engine that you are using works first to determine that.

The author of the engine example you've cited, SupaStix, recommends the following:

There's an example (and several others) included with the Mode7Ex extension that does what you're asking for. Check it out.


See the comments below the original download for more info.

Unfortunately I'm not brainy enough to offer any more suggestions...Mode7 is quite far beyond me. But best of luck to you.
