Here you are a real 3D engine for MMF, using mode7 extension. It is not a simpliest gadget. It is a serious and real 3D engine. It is free open source. Send me an E-mail: cyberclic@free.fr and I'll send you the source. Quality like Wolfenstein 3D. Made by my son: Christophe from Cyberclic
Crystal: You can make it with any version of MMF (1.0, 1.2, 1.5), you dont need the pro version. Simply download the Mode 7 extension from www.cellosoft.com
There is a FPS example/demo with Mode 7 ex... it has enemies shooting and stuff. No walls though, cause those are a bitch. ;-) (Mode 7 isn't intended for that anyway!)
Impressive display...the best mode 7 first person example i've seen so far...has potential...and the good thing is that it actually ran smoothly!
Good luck using this for anything more however!
AAAAAAAARRRRRGGGGHHHH!!! NO! NO!! EVIL!!!
C:\Moteur3d? Ever heard of appdrive$ + appdir$ ?!?! USE IT!
Sorry. Just hate it when apps like this junk up my hard drive all the time. Last time I looked in root C:\ I found about 40 INI files, images, games, list files... from people who couldn't be bothered to use the same directory as the game.
Anyway, it's just a Mode7 app with a height map to fake walls. Whats so special about it?
Um...I dunno. Although this looks like quite a bit of effort was put into it....who would wanna play a game like that, anyway? Maybe it's just my computer, but the engine looks as primitive as FPS games a decade ago. Not that I'm saying it's bad, but it's probably much less effort to make a Half-Life mod.
chris long: I'm talking about the fps demo with mode7ex that actually lets you shoot enemies and shit
tigerworks: it's the rar self extractor that doesn't let you choose where it unzips, if you have a program like ultimate zip you can rightclick the exe and tell it to extract to wherever you want.
muz: all click games are primitive, so why should we bother playing them? I mean, we might as well play super nintendo.
If people want to make 3d games with clickteams products use JAMAGIC!! Just a thought, i dont think theres one game in this site that has a game with JAMAGIC, but it is a clickteam product
(Tigerworks)appdrive$ + appdir$ ?!?! USE IT! I've heard of this and know what it does,but not what everything means.Just wondering if you could explain it in an article or sumthin.
(Marcello)Hmm what do you mean by primitive?
Heh just wondering.
(Lucas)Theres really no point in using Jamagic.Jamagic DEFEATS the purpose of click gaming.I could see using it,but people shouldnt consider it a full fledged click product.
(im downloading now)

Doesn't need an article, just a sentence:
Active Picture: Open picture file appdrive$ + appdir$ + "myfile.jpg" -> Opens Myfile.jpg in the same directory as your game. Appdrive$ + appdir$ just returns the directory of your game.
Quite a bit of work? Correct me if I'm wrong, but all this needs is a Mode7 heightmap and two textures, maybe an event or two for walking?
Thanks.Doesnt the $ mean something.I remember some things ive seen and done have had to use it and anothersymbol to tell what kind of value it is.Isnt $ String or text and ! is a Numerical value??
My point exactly... nothing too incredible, maybe impressive to TGF users or users who have not experimented before with Mode7, but you don't even need any events for the walls.
Appdrive$ <- the $ means it is a string, like String$("String object"). If it does not have a $, usually it means it is a numeric value.
Exclamation marks standing for numeric values? How long have yo been using TGF/MMF?
Hi! Thankyou you all for your interest. I'm author's father :)
Err... Our ADSL connection doesnt work. And my son can't connect to his mail service. Then, send your mail to margasoft@free.fr if you want code source.

Well the ! standing for numerical was in something else (i wasnt really referring to tgf/mmf ) thanks a lot tho :).
Download it again, the zip is OK.
BTW This is very cool. 3D games are a complicated subject (compared to 2D), but from what I've already seen from the community there has to be someone who makes a half-decent game with Mode 7.
I've had a look at it, and i must say, it's good. Yes, its simply to make, but compared to some of the other 3d engines (at least the once i've seen) this one is good.
I like it, but is is an easy set up. I do agree that they should have used appdrive$ + appdir$ for everything. Cool engine, good speed, but adding much more to it, even with fast loop and fast function would slow down the game sooo much. Nice to see you can walk around and crud though. :D
Wow this is amazing !
I didn't think it would look that neat !
BTW - for TGF clickers
A clicker who call himself Chansey made tons of 3d examples with TGF at the clickteam forum . You can also find them at his site .
These are very good examples .
Yet , you'll need to know some of the basic ideas in trigonometry (it not as hard as some think ).
GREAT!..but why the walls are short? and why U hide the healthpack if the player is a little far from it?
mybe to hide this BUG: I see the object thought the walls!
it would be better if someone actually finished the stuff, i know its just an engine, but it would be good if you could actually go somewhere and fight actual baddies like good old wolfenstein
Pretty cool...
But anyone serious about making a real intresting 3d FPS should learn how to use klik opengl X.
I have to some extent, and as im a 3d modeller you can do some GREAT stuff with it.
