![]() ![]() select the sphere and the transparent circle on top (2 objects), right click, then Create clip (or go to Object > Clip > Set). ![]() Duplicate it, move one behind all the others (you will use it later). Draw a circle, align it on top of the sphere (group the lines of the sphere beforehand), make it a little smaller than the sphere, and a bit transparent. Now, if you don't want to see the "poles" of the sphere, you could use a circle to clip it: Copy the resulting path, flip it, and move it to the other side. Edit its nodes to make it closer to the outside circle (yellow is the result). Copy one of the paths (here I chose the green one). To make it more realistic, you may want to do these extra steps: On a real sphere this would not be the case because of perspective, but it might be good enough. Notice that the lines have equal distance to each other. Click Apply, or use Live preview before clicking apply.

In this case, I chose the following settings: exponent 0, interpolation steps 6, duplicate endpaths off, interpolate style on. Select both halfs of the circle, go to Extensions > Generate from path > Interpolate. ![]() This is an important step, and is NOT the same as simply flipping it. Select the right half of the circle, go to Path > Reverse. This will use the path (which is on top) to cut the path of the circle into two separate paths. Select both the circle and the path, go to Path > Cut path. Draw a circle, then draw a vertical line, align them both using the Align tool. By the same logic as in the above tutorial, the perpendicular distance is simply mapX - rayPosX in my world.To apply lines on a sphere, you could use Interpolate between two paths (half circles). (1-stepX)/2 is simply a way of adding 1 if the ray is on the left side of the field of view. This one relies on distance vectors more than angles and calculates the perpendicular distance to the wall according to the below formulas where mapX is the position of the player, rayPosX is the position of the wall that has been hit by a ray, and rayDirX is the direction of the ray (along with its Y counterparts of course). ![]() The tutorial at has another way of handling the fisheye effect which confuses me in the same way. My question is, WHY is this not the same? How could it not be? What am I understanding and visualizing wrong here? Yet, this clearly isn't the case according to the tutorial. From my point of view, the "distorted distance" below is the same as the distance PD calculated above, and what's labelled the "correct distance" below should be the same as Py - Dy. The distance perpendicular to the screen then, in my world, should simply be the distance of Y coordinates (Py - Dy) assuming that the player is facing straight upwards.Ĭontinuing the tutorial, this is exactly how it seems to be according to the below screenshot. Looking at the screenshot below from the tutorial at, the way I understand the cause of the fisheye effect is that the rays that are cast are distances from the player, rather than the distances perpendicular to the screen (or camera plane) which is what really needs to be displayed. Continuing my exploration of raycasting, I am very confused about how the correction of the fisheye effect works. ![]()
