Hello,is there a command in DBC that allows you to place 3d objects on screen using 2d co-cordinates.

I know there is a command that allows you to read 3D objects screen positions, but is it possible to sort of reserve this?

Also my DBC wont upgrade to the newest version, any ideas?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, as im using maths to place them and it dosent quite work out!

Thanks again.

if youre just trying to get it to stay in one place on the screen, you can just use the lock object command

No, the object is moving all around the screen, but I wonder what effect locking several 3d objects to screen at different locations constantly, would have on system performance??

Thanks youve given me an idea!

Any other help would be appreciated.
