I managed to get 3d-FoV working correctly to a good extent. I would appreciate it if people could test it out. You will need to create a world with experimental zlevels and enable 3d fov (? -\> 2 (Options) -\> Debug -\> Experimental 3D Field of View). Here is the repo [https://github.com/KyleSiefring/Cataclysm-DDA/tree/3d\_zlevel\_exp](https://github.com/KyleSiefring/Cataclysm-DDA/tree/3d_zlevel_exp)
There are some problems that I’m already aware of.
[ul][li]It’s fast enough to be playable but slow enough to be problematic.[/li]
[li]The \> 45 degree upward and downward cone is missing (i.e. look up and you will see a unsee-able square that grows every zlevel you look up).[/li]
[li]Ceilings and floors don’t seem to be processed until you reload.[/li]
[li]Windows and doors have no ceilings so you can see up them even when they are blocked 2d. Opening them creates holes in the roof.[/li][/ul]

i have no idea how to compile it, my skills cant do anything more than creating and compiling simple console programs solving simple math problems
Running project pre-build steps
cmd /c git --version || echo ‘git’ command not found!

I downloaded and compiled this, so excited for 3d CDDA. I missed the 3d FOV part.
How does this differ from the 3d fov Coolthulu worked on?
