I realize this is an old post, but just wanted to say you captured the Dofus graphics nicely. Plus, I like your style overall. Cheers!

It’s a good tut, but i’m not sure why they use the “complicated” cos and sin functions. My calculations give the same result but are much simpler (and therefore much faster when you have lots of calulations).

Anyway, I hope you make some nice iso-stuff. Let me know when you have something on-line…

No 3D Engine .
I will try to do it
I found a good introduction to isometric transformation (http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/isometric_transforms.htm).

Tnx for the kind words!
No need for 3D engines here though just a small piece of code to turn iso x-, y- and z-values into screen x- and y-values:

this.x = this.__isoX-this.__isoY;
this.y = (this.__isoX+this.__isoY)/2;
this.y -= this.__isoZ;

(code snippet from the Tile-class)

Very very nice job, I like it !
Do you used a 3D engine, papervision or away3d to do this ?
