Lua-RayCast3D 3DS: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 09:48, 7 September 2021

RayCast3D is a 3D Game Engine for Nintendo 3DS / PSVITA which runs under [Lua Player Plus 3DS](https://github.com/Rinnegatamante/lpp-3ds) / [Lua Player Plus Vita](https://github.com/Rinnegatamante/lpp-vita).

It uses [RayCasting algorithm](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_casting) to generate a 3D world starting from a 2D map. It runs fullspeed on N3DS even with best accuracy values.

On O3DS it runs pretty good with accuracy value >= 2.

Features

Automated camera and player position management
No restrictions on maps sizes
Support for sky and floor rendering (still choppy at the moment)
