Hi Everyone,

I am having some problems with some 3D code. I use to be good at DarkBasic...

When I run the attached code I just get a black screen with the FPS showing. Why is this? Is there an explaination of whatever it is I am missing so I can read and quit asking dumb questions?

Thx.

Ok, as far as I know, there is no command to make cameras unless it's a command for DBPro. Take out the "make camera 1" and also the cls command in your main loop. If you're always clearing the screen, how can anything show up?

So your code should go like this:



Hope I helped.

there is a "Make camera" command in DBPro...

You know, when i see an old lady slip and fall on the side walk, my first instinct is to luagh, but then i think, what if i where an ant? and she fell on me, it just doesn't seem so funny anymore.

You don't need to make a camere, camera 0 is used by default. Also you should only turn the backdrop off if you have a sky box/sphere or the screen is full of objects. Using cls clears the screen so you don't see the object.
