Of course there is no gravity modifier in the game, but we can be fooled into thinking we walk on a ceiling. What you need would be an exact copy of a level upside down, where you are teleported to. Now I don't know if this is possible but to make it look convincing you need the following:
- ceiling tiles become floor tiles and visa versa
- upside down torches and shadows
- previously dropped items sticking to the ceiling
- upside down toggled gates and levers
- upside closed doors that are opened vertical now open in opposite direction
Would this be able and rendered properly? I guess monsters upside down attacking would be impossible?
Walking on ceilings and walls

these are all trivial, models support offset and rotationFrenchie wrote:- ceiling tiles become floor tiles and visa versa

however, changing gravity and vertical collision handling is almost certainly impossible

Re: Walking on ceilings and walls
for the first point, no problem: but if you do a multiple ceilings, that can be a problem. It don't work for me.Frenchie wrote:Of course there is no gravity modifier in the game, but we can be fooled into thinking we walk on a ceiling.

for the item dropped on the ceiling... well, I can't say it's impossible, as their is always someone who makes miracles
but it seems impossible

Re: Walking on ceilings and walls
Your marble stone tileset looks very cool, bongobeet. 

Re: Walking on ceilings and walls
Thanks! I finally followed your advice, and keep only the white marble floor. I have tried a mix with the marble floor and a golden plate, but... that don't look very nice.
