VERY intellegent shadows. A great thing to do would be to figure out how to do this without loads of costumes (which is nigh on impossible, but plausable). I love how you used a ghosted boardwalk for the shading. :P
Interesting. First thing I thought of was an invisible pixel scrolling across the cat and then checking for a collision with the cat. Then a little bit of math to project that. Then _any_ sprite could have a shadow.
Nice job Mr Pickle... :o)

this is how I tried to do it with one costume: (link to project) this was supposed to be a huge improvement. and it is.
(view all replies)no love its yet but some great comments yayay

Nice effect and very real.

hmm, maybe you could try that. I think that this works not as an engine but as a project.
(view all replies)maybe, but that wouldn't be as FAST. you know, maybe I could optimize this...
(view all replies)Now that I've looked at the scripts the project is even more astonishing than before! Really incredible and very impressive. Excellent work!
It's great just watching it here online as the shadow unfolds. And very mysterious. Nice project. Now off to download it to see how you did it. :-)
thanks. lots of work getting the image data for the cat mostly.
