So I've just revealed my code for my slope engine. I don't like doing this because it's nice to feel like no one else is smart enough to try this stuff. So I gave the guy a simple ramp which contains 2 triangle slope calculations.

yeah I know the GMC probably doesn't deserve it as much as you guys but I didn't want to copy it.

If you have any questions about this method then I will answer them.

Well here are some specs for the code

If one point is checking all triangles, then on my computer about 2000 triangles can be checked(note the code only checks hieght if point is in triangle) my computer is two years old twas bought for .5 grand and is pentium 4 monocore. 512mb of ram, minimal graphics card capable of 3d. So it could be usefull.

By the way in a few weeks(months, years, decades) or so I'll be releasing an editor that will allow you to create realtime terrain maps with ease.

Here is a demonstration of the engine. (This one has simple gravity, in other words the gravity was quickly added in)

And this is my build of the other game I mention in my previous blog here

For the game I've only made a few preset track pieces in an editor which has just become bug free.

So I'll be working on more preset track pieces and then I try to start working on that realtime shadow effect.

Controls for demonstration file

Mouse wheel to zoom in and out. when in the demonstration I suggest panning down and zooming out after.
