45° angle view

sadly the non-3D tile server which is used by OSM2World's demo slippy map service seems to be down. That, indeed, would have been something similar to Moumoutte's idea.

Thanks to both of you for your help, I really appreciate. OSM2WORLD with Base Layer switched to OSM and hillshading deactivated takes me a little closer to what I'm looking for. However, is it hardly readable as the text looks strangely distorted (the map does too, actually).

I am working on a project of mine using Leaflet with OSM tiles.

Is there a way for me to tweak the angle (to get any angle) ? How is it done ? Are the tiles different, or is the angle just simulated in some way (it looks so, that would explain the distortion)?

Another question comes along: Is there a way to make the characters in names "stand" a little, in a way similar to the "HOLLYWOOD" sign in Los Angeles? The ability to give letters in words displayed horizontally a different angle would improve readability while giving a sense of depth. Does it sound completely unrealistic?

Thanks in advance for your thougths on this.

Modifying the angle is not possible for OSM2World's online tiles. These tiles are pre-rendered for east, south, west and north. Other directions and angles need re-rendering of the tiles, which you could do yourself.
