Suggestion: 3d elevators and blocks
« on: June 23, 2014, 09:50:36 PM »
with elevator i am referring to the ones in gutsman`s level and with blocks i am referring to the ones popping up in heatman`levels and stuff like that. the fact that they are 2d makes them very difficult to use so i suggest making them 3d. the game would still be 8 bit but would be easier to navigate.

Limits of the engine.

While voxels could be used to make 3D objects (I think), it won't look very good at all for an object that small.

it is at least worth looking into to see if there is a way to do it.

We're already well aware of what is possible and what is not. If voxels was a possibility, then MM8TEN would actually have the tengu front end of the ship. But as of now, voxel support isn't there yet.

But isn't it possible to do with 3D Floors? I know someone made a SMB3 Falling Block in ZDoom...
