arent you forgetting something?

SYNC ON
MAKE OBJECT CUBE 1,100

DO
YROTATE OBJECT 1,WRAPVALUE(OBJECT ANGLE Y(1)+0.1)
SYNC
LOOP

The manual/tutorials will tell you what "sync on | sync | wrapvalue" means

that wont fix it, if you never say Sync On you dont have to say Sync in the loop.

add this to the begining (position camera 0,-200,0), your camera is inside your cube and you can only see it from the outside.

get used to adding Autocam Off at the begining of your code otherwise the camera tends to flit all about the place as objects are loaded.

Might want to check you have directx 9.0b and recent video card drivers.

Our civilization faces three great dangers. The first is destruction by a nuclear war, the second is being crippled with overpopulation and the third is the Age of Leisure.

Well Lord Helmet, without sync on | sync the cube wont show up here. With sync on | sync it will. No need to reposition the camera.
