Looks Cool
AHH - I know ......
Try this!
Adding to X,Y,Z is only good SOMETIMES. Once you turn the object ,
its not correct - because the Grid you did math on DID not turn.
By moving the camera versus trying to calc the correct x,y,z pos for the camera - I CHEAT - Let DBPro do the work
See how I Moved the camera versus trying to "Offset it" with Plus 4 on X axis, +y on Y axis?
That should do it.

` You'll HAVE to test this - I tweaked - but no compiler here :(
` Also read up on Sync Command. Plus I TRIED to get your fog working how
` you wanted but by not putting it loop. (Unnessary commands being executed over
` and over slow down your programs when they get bigger. When they are bigger
` - it can cost ya!
Sync On ` tells system YOU will tell it when to draw, not up to puter ;)
