It's worth noting that in the IRL Super NES/Super Famicom, that Mode 7 was natively only capable of doing linear matrix transformations (translate, rotate, scale, skew). In order to get these 3D perspectives, the console could run small graphics attribute updates at the end of every video scanline (H-DMA, horizontal blanking Direct Memory Access), changing the Mode 7 transformation matrix on each line to simulate a non-linear transform. This is also used to get different "sky" and "floor" patterns, as Mode 7 supported only one background layer; you'd draw the sky, then rapidly mirror the floor graphics into the graphics memory.
Something I want to point out - This is **not** Mode 7, this is simply a perspective projection (which, while was possible using Mode 7, was not the only purpose) Mode 7 on the Super Nintendo was a Hardware Acceleration feature that allowed a background layer to be adjusted using an Affine Transformation.
Retro Game Mechanics Explained covers this topic in his SNES series. The familiar “mode 7” perspective also depends on HDMA varying the scale factor over time as the screen is drawn.
For those who might follow along with this tutorial and write the code as it goes, note that you will not be able to get a display window to pop up (seen at 2:40 and 3:30) if you have created only a mode7 and settings file. The reason it works for them (and wasn't explained from the beginning) is because they're using PyCharm and, when they run the code in the mode7 file, their configuration is set to work off of the main file they already have coded out. Note: As of this writing, Numba is only compatible with Python 3.7-3.10, and NumPy versions 1.18-1.23. They are currently working on updating it to work with Python 3.11.
Demo coder here. Quite clearly explained, but so many optimizations possible... First, eliminate repeated variables (like floor_pos and cell_pos) and make all the operations in the same expression to eliminate further variables... make a sin/cosine table (or sin, sin+90) and make it integer by passing the SCALE to it and trunk (less resolution, a lot of performance boost)... Make the divisions 2-exponent where possible and convert to binary left rotations... I'd like to see how it performs with these without jit compilation.
I hate this recent "trend" of using ai voices in videos. Please let us hear your voice, it is not a bad one I am sure, it can't be worse than the emotionless ai voices.
@@playnalisis Personally I'd still prefer a "bad" voice over an ai voice. I've done some videos before and am actually working on some and yeah it's a lot of work doing takes and retakes but its real man.
The real problem comes from the fact everyone has his own problem. Whether or not it's a lack of mic,lack of time,a very strong and pronounced accent, having the voice of a toddler etc. tho I do not like the ai voices,I don't think it's a "trend" and I think a lot of people just see ai voices as an opportunity to make videos regardless of their limitations
you know they could easily sell a gimped piece of doom by just adding a second background, but scaled from the top instead to seem like a ceiling. And then the walls could be moving sprites. And the floor of course is the normal mode 7 layer.
The next improvement I'd suggest is using a plane composed of tiles, that would be closer to the real mode7, as the mode7 was a regular tile plane, composed of small tiles, that supported affine transforms during their display. Cool effects!👍

Liked and already sub'd! I wish there was a way to also create HTML5 games at least from our Python scripts, especially because I have far more time to play smartphone games as opposed to PC games.
For two decades i always tout that mode7 could move a background in 3D space including 3D rotation in all directions,BUT as it turns out,a background doesn’t move in 3D space,instead a background is scewed,stretched,shrinked in whether form to fake 3D movement of it but in reality it just uses perspective correction to give the elussion of a background moving in 3D, Pretty clever, Same thing with sprite scaling trough software, Now even if a background and a sprite could,ve move in 3D space,i still would,ve considered that as fake 3D as well since everything would,ve be still flat anyway,except that it would,ve look smoother.
This is definitely not how mode 7 worked. Mode 7 was not "weak 3d", it was not even 3d. Perhaps an aproximation, but still does not look nor behaves like mode 7 did. In the snes, a 2x2 matrix was applied per scanline (when a scanline was finished, an interrupt is called which changes the matrix; that's how the snes was able to do it. If other consoles, like the megadrive/genesis had the ability to call interrupts at the horizontal blaking, they would have been able to achieve the same effect. Of course, this would need to be at the VDP level, and the vdp would need to have the ability to do matrix transformations quite fast).
I was able to implement this into your previous DOOM-like tutorial, but it looks super janky. Like, it displays the floor and ceiling properly, and I have it use the players position and angle to move it around which also works, but it looks like its all detached from the walls. Any suggestions on how this could be fixed?
lol I don't even know how to get to the first menu that he got. How do you get GMS2 to recognize these files? Also - will this overwrite how Game Maker Studio 2 will run? I have other levels that do not use this.
"in order for the method to be executed with the performance of compiled languages" ... .ummm, python will never be executed with the performance of compiled languages. You can get reasonable performance with JIT, but it will still never compare to what you can get with a compiled language.

The problem is a lot of people do not have a good voice. And it’s very hard to do a video without takes after takes.
@@playnalisis Personally I'd still prefer a "bad" voice over an ai voice. I've done some videos before and am actually working on some and yeah it's a lot of work doing takes and retakes but its real man.
@@cheezeebutter452 there is really good Ai voice. I use it and it works

I agree but unfortunately ai is here to stay.
Nice! I am really enjoying your channel. Keep up the good work.
Well done! Impressive channel. Love how much more you get out of pygame.
I’d love if you make a video about driving game from the driver perspective
I always enjoy your content so much!
Such a brilliant looking effect
Amazing work, I remember I played a game with similar effect 15 years ago, I think it was final fantasy but I might be mistaken.
Just what I needed! Ty

wow this is very interesting. I love 3D effects.
Hello, how put object on projected plane, i have no idea!!!
Amazing video, so beautiful to see stuff that I used to implement in days in assembly, being done in a few python lines. Excellent tutorial!

I think i has to do with the FOV not matching between the wall projection and the floor/ceiling projection, but I'm not sure how to remedy this.
seems to be the answer here:
gamedev.stackexchange.com/questions/176347/raycasting-with-mode7
I wonder; is it possible to use this with a Wolfenstein 3d style ray cast for drawing walls?
i feel as if this should be easy to add to your wolfenstein game. any tips?
Hmmm how can i bend the plane to make it like a sonic 3 special stage style?

lol I don't even know how to get to the first menu that he got. How do you get GMS2 to recognize these files?

Game Maker Studio is not used in this video at all. It’s just regular Python.
Just in time compilation in Python you just blew my mind lmao.

What does dx, dy and focal length mean? And thx.
dx, dy - increments, one step on a 2d plane, along the x and y axes
