After I learned everything there is about the human bone, I decided it would be more fun to blow up digital worlds.
i went through so many iterations, from a simple heightmap renderer to a full-blown voxel raytracer, and now landing right inbetween: THIS!!!
for context: this is rendering inside DOSBox. the voxels are rendered via a 2D DDA grid-stepping algorithm. the voxels themselves are stored as RLE-encoded runs of air and blocks, which is computed to vertical lines on the screen
I am SO incredibly proud of this, ya'll have no idea
it's................ DOS minecraft, lol
That's pretty cool! It looks great and I'm glad you're having fun with it.
Would this run on an actual beige box MS-DOS machine with a 486, or does this require being run in an emulator on a modern computer?
it would probably require atleast a Pentium III, lol
but it could run on real hardware!
okay. now we just need to make dosbox run on RISC-V, and then you can play minecraft inside minecraft via OC2 LMAO
Nice. Sometimes the old ways are the best. Or at least the most satisfying.
