Tgb Iso Pack

by Drew -Gaiiden- Sikora · in Torque Game Builder · 09/15/2006 (11:20 pm) · 4 replies

I'm looking into ISO options for a client of mine. I've searched around and uncovered Neo's ISO Pack that is under development - looks very cool but may not be available in time. Has anyone rolled their own ISO using what TGB has available? Or will I be rolling up my sleeves and getting into the engine code?

Have you checked out Sickhead's TGB Adventure Kit? It might be what you're looking for. It makes use of the new in-layer sorting options. Check out the preview video on the product page.

I made a pseudo-isometric game just recently with TGB, and here is the effect I was able to achieve:

Not *quite* isometric, but it's still a 3/4 perspective and looks pretty cool imo. You can download the compiled version and the source of it if you're interested. But beware, it's far from complete.

Thx guys, my client decided to go non-iso so I guess I'm off the hook - keep up the good work tho! :)

I didn't catch this earlier but if you do decide to do an ISO game later on, there is one in development:

For non-iso, the adventure kit mentioned above is a great way to kick start your project.
