Even better: cosmic rays mutating ordinary code into machine-level optimized code :P

Actually, if I converted Ncaster to integer arithmetic and optimized it, a combined floorcaster + ray caster should get about 15 FPS.
It all depends if the cosmic rays manage to mutate the blue lobsters.
What will they mutate into?
Rick Astley.

Lol, that would be one big picture of Rick Astley (4096x4096). It would be 8MB large.
Hey, that fits! Now if I only had a level editor... there's no way I'm going to manually enter 4096 tiles into a text file.

Code updated for the new Ndless and properly packaged.
I may start working on this again in the near future.

This looks really cool from the still screenies.  Can all of us non-Nspire users have a moving screenie please?  Thanks! ;D

I think there was a video several pages back, but it may have not been the current version.

Sorry, but there's not one.  * ZTrumpet looks on ticalc... ;D

Edit:  It appears that it's not on ticalc yet, so no chance of a screenie there either. ;D

I believe there is a video of this in the Omnimaga Ninth Anniversary Video.

There's a video of it in the 2010 Omnimaga tribute video. It even adds the Nspire blur effect so it looks closer to the real calc. It's very short, though.
(check around 00:50 in the video, right after Raylin's gravity game)

This would really be great including this floorcasting algorithm into Ncaster.

We could map a texture on the floor.
We could also map textures on the top and bottom of walls too!


Now what we all need is a new screen for the TI-Nspire.
Anybody working on such a "mod" ? ;)
