[crossfire] Graphism perspective

[Nicolas Weeger]

Hello.


I'm wondering what perspective we want to have in the game.


Right now, for monsters themselves, it's quite incoherent:
- some are top/bottom/left/right
- some have the vertical line not vertical
- some have yet other things.

Random examples:

I admit that the "top/bottom/left/right" view is weird, considering the view 
is somehow top-down.

On the other hand having a non-vertical vertical axis (like 
http://crossfire.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/crossfire/arch/trunk/monster/angel/archangel.base.x12.png?revision=13991&view=markup 
) looks weird.

So maybe something like a vertical axis "vertically exiting the screen" (if 
that makes sense :))...


What do you think?

Nicolas
