James Cat Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Hi Peeps I used the stuff on Lou's Pseudo 3d page to make a road in CSS - it's just straight and flat at the moment but I thought I'd share for fun. http://catplusplus.org.uk/catpsite/cssracer/ there's a couple of images which need to load so you need to give it a few seconds. on phones it looks better landscape.

James Cat Posted September 25, 2013 Author Share Posted September 25, 2013 ....although as my friend reacted (much to my dissapointment) you could make something that looks like this using an animated gif :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benny! Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 lol ... I know such reactions. People nowadays sometimes dont value realtime calculated stuff anymore.That said,actually your friend is right in terms of performance,production costs etc.Nevertheless,you know how the stuff works "behind the scenes" whether you generate a animated GIF out of it or not.

James Cat Posted September 25, 2013 Author Share Posted September 25, 2013 heh yes :-) 'behind the scenes' there are variables in the code that allow you to change camera position on the fly - in the final thing I'll make the camera height/zoom shift slightly according to the player position - like you say it's one of those 'behind the scenes' things, I'm just hoping to create a demo of applying old arcade raster techniques with DOM. Thanks for your words of support! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benny! Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 That sounds good.Add mouse interaction like real-time movement of the camera and show it again to your friend.Maybe then he understands the difference between realtime and a pre-rendered GIF.Anyway, good luck and keep posting your progress.
