Here is what I made today. Here are some notes:

That's impressive.  Is it using the same method "darkfall lost souls" is using? Placing the camera inside a 3D object? To fully develop this method you'd need to add real-time camera scripting in wme which currently doesn't have.

That is totally cool.  In particular, I liked the ability to rotate around the room (except I got a bit dizzy - it went so fast!).  I did notice that after I jumped up & down a few times, the up arrow started working as jump instead of forward.  Was that coded as a switch statement?

Were you using a geometry file alone with 2d path finding turned off?

[piere]

binary1, there is no path finding, the entire scene(even the mountains in the back) is one big .X file. The camera is just in the middle and when I want to move forward, I code the movement, for example: GoTo(actor.x + 15, actor.y);

Thanks for liking it !

Don't get me wrong, I really like that workaround, since it's used in some WME Games already, but I think it's quite pointless to work on that method since WME2 is to support full 3D But nice Example anyway!

[piere]

Agreed, just wanted to have some fun

But I guess it should be possible to do myst 3/4 like games (360° Panorama view ) too, or am I wrong?

[odnorf]

Darkfall lost souls is already a node-based panorama view game using the same method. The problem with that is that it doesn't allow moving the camera around freely because wme lacks real-time camera scripting.
