any example of a "hero" walking on isometric map with collision detection?

[strang...@gmail.com]

Hi everybody,

basically I'm looking for a JavaScript lib to implement kind of "map walker" game as

 described here http://gamedev.stackexchange.com/questions/32036/html5-game-engine-for-a-2d-or-2-5d-rpg-style-map-walk

and melonJS looking quite promising, I see examples of walking on orthogonal map with collision detection.

But I can not find any melonJS example of walking on isometric map + collision detection. 

Can you suggest me something?

Just found this great example:

  https://github.com/bjorn/mana.js

The library is really good, it makes possible to implement the functionality with very small amount of code.

Nevertheless - is it possible to implement the same thing on isometric map?

It means: prepare isometric *.tmx, load it in JavaScript - ready.

What is exact meaning of following lines in the feature list:

***********************

Orthogonal tilemap with built-in collision management

Isometric, Perspective tilemap support

***********************

How to implement collision management for isometric maps?

[melonJS]

Hi,

It means that melonJS is able to display isometric map, see this example:

http://www.melonjs.org/demos/flare_map_loader/index.html

but does not contains yet built-in code to manage collision (as opposed to orthogonal maps).

actually i'm working on it now, I more or less just added the necessary code to render properly isometric map, with my next step being to look at isometric collision detection.

I can't however promise you for when this will be ready, so unless you are ready to dive into the code and help on this, you will have to wait a little bit :)

and about how to add collision management (in a proper way), that's an answer I'm trying to find as well.

I know that AndyV3liz was working on an isometric game, so he might have some answer to provide )

Hi

Is this an actual Problem in Version 0.9.7? 

Or is it possible now to make an working collision map in Tiled for isometric Maps?

Isometric support is still very much work-in-progress. Collision detection is also a work-in-progress. At this time, it is not easy to build accurate isometric collision shapes with melonJS.
