Can anyone offer a piece of code to get the exact world position of the mousepointer (so a 3d model can use the 'point object' command). As i cannot get this to work properly.

This is not the kind of 3D this forum is for... your question is on the programming side.

Take a look at the Code Snippets forum, there are many examples of what you're looking for. There are some 'mouse-position-to-3d-coordinates' type cool snippets in the Codebase too.

Also, you need to state if you're using DBC or DBP, there are different solutions possible for each. [If DBP, read up on the pick object command and the pick vectors. Very easy to use.]
