Super Mario Pseudo 3D

http://illdanell.blogspot.com/2008/08/super-mario-pseudo-3d.html

An experiment I made, by recording ingame twice; one for color and one that i manipulated the sprites so they would act like a three leveled displacement map to add depth (Black, grey, white). for more info (in swedish):

Why is the music slower than in the original games?

[illbrat]

@ArcaneDragonX Hmm, I might have made the mistake of recording in NTSC and output in PAL. That's about 16% slower I think.

[TheLinkinthepark2]

mmm sry what program is this?

[illbrat]

@TheLinkinthepark2 Its not a particular program. You can se how I developed the effect, look in the desciption.

[gibbousmoon100]

If you could create that effect in a 3D form that an anaglyph driver could interpret, it would be really funny.

[illbrat]

@gibbousmoon100 Great idea! I have already got sufficient knowledge on how to do so.

[SmileyMiley12300]

its wonderful (if only the characters,enemies,power ups or any other thing alike wasnt pseudo mode)

[TheFamily4christ]

that does look like 3D!

[marmar3291]

imagine if this came out on the NES.. people would have jizzed even harder than they did with original mario.

[YoshiXyLuigiX]

[xNESxClan]

[junglestreet]

I think it can be done. double buffering. lets make a Clay Mario 3D!

[Neweegee]
