A bit less impressive than the SNES version part due to Mode 7, but at least Rare tried!
Awesome! ("You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Vludi again.")
Yes, I know. Me and Barone are working on a feature for the site, that's why I have left it as is for a while. You could help out by listing the stuff which isn't on the first page yet.Quote:

It's animation.

Stumbled accross with thread, turns out I registered a long time ago.
Anyways, I'm here to correct an unfair oversight.
Streets of Rage 2 has perhaps the best MD tilting. Unlike most other games that use tile-sized tilting, SoR2 seems to be pixel accurate.
You can see it on the boat section of stage 3, at 21:50.
Unless it's pre-rendered, but there are subtle slowdowns once the effect kicks in, so I doubt it.

Only if you say me the Project Y release date:!:Quote:

The tilting is double tile wide (vscroll only allows this small of resolution), but they are using X line offset as well. It's similar to 'shearing' method of rotation, but obviously the Genesis is limited to the small angle of appeared/approximate rotation.Quote:

Thanks!Quote:

I don't know it. I've not worked very much on that game.Quote:
