hey , this is strange:

i was developing my first try out of this basic and rolled an sphere with selfmade texture over a matrix wich i randomized and textured as well, when i cam to developing the sphere moving around in the matrix i found that when the camera follows or when the sphere turns and moves at the same time the it shivers

i worked out most of the stuf like the reason was that it try to do it in turns and like turns, moves,turns,moves,turns,moves or moves,camera follow,moves,follow
but how can i stop this?
anyone know? plz tell me
laterZz

Yay I get to explain the concept of manual sync to a newbie!

Have you tried "sync on"? It's in my opinion one of the most important commands in DarkBasic. It activates manual sync. Without "sync on", DarkBasic will render the scene each time something is changed, like the camera is moved or an object is repositioned. This is a horribly inefficient way of doing things. That's why there's "sync on". Use "sync on" at the beginning of your program, and then the scene will only be rendered when you place the "sync" command.

Example:

sync on
load object "object.x",1

do
turn object left 1,1
sync
loop



Put the command "SYNC" at the end of your main loop, or wherever you want to render.

Hope this answers your question. Read more about sync commands in DB manual.
