I'm rather new to DarkBASIC and have been programming in it for like what? A day now? Anyway my first real project is a Wireframe Horizontal Space Shooter but I just can't seem to make an object wireframe. (Or atleast make the object show... you pick) How can I make an wireframed object? Even learning to do a simple cube would be great, or even better if I can get a whole .bsp wireframed.

If ya can help me, thanks!

(Oh btw, what I mean by Wireframe is a 3D game, and I'm using DarkBASIC Pro)

Well, to make a solid, try make object cube
EXAMPLE:

+ Code Snippet

 Make object cube 1,1

Don't know how to wireframe it though

Well I appreciate you trying to help but that's not exactly what I need... although making a cube helps too :/

Thanks anyway!

I think I know what you're trying to do Yart.

Here is the command I think you want:

+ Code Snippet

set object wireframe n,1

Where n = the number of the object you want to make wireframe. The 1 is a flag telling it to make the object wireframe.

So if you were to use this for a cube you would use the code below

+ Code Snippet

make object cube 1,10
set object wireframe 1,1

I know that the command will work in DBpro but not sure if it exists for DBclassic.

Hope it's helpful

Wow been like what? A month since I returned here? I'm sorry for bumping but I just had to reply for another question to do with wireframe.

Let's say I want this NICE Red wireframe cube, I have it! Oh no! It's dark on some lines! There! Got rid of the light... but to that even my colour has been gotten rid of!!!! (Pardon my bad english... but I promise you that it's getting gooder everyday)

How do I make it have no light and yet still have colour besides being white? I want bright lines.

Pie!

Hey,
Try this for a red wireframe cube:

+ Code Snippet

sync on
sync rate 0
cls
hide mouse
`green color
ink rgb(255,0,0),0
box 0,0,100,100
`black color(transparent)
ink 0,0
box 2,2,98,98
get image 1,0,0,100,100,0
MAKE OBJECT CUBE 1,100
texture object 1,1
set object 1,0,1,0
color backdrop 0
DO
   YROTATE OBJECT 1,OBJECT ANGLE Y(1)+1
   sync
LOOP

A thicker wire frame makes it look brighter:

+ Code Snippet

sync on
sync rate 0
cls
hide mouse
`green color
ink rgb(255,0,0),0
box 0,0,100,100
`black color(transparent)
ink 0,0
box 2,2,98,98
get image 1,0,0,100,100,1
MAKE OBJECT CUBE 1,100
texture object 1,1
set object 1,10,1,0
color backdrop 0
DO
   YROTATE OBJECT 1,OBJECT ANGLE Y(1)+1
   sync
LOOP

-----------------------------------
To delete the bug, delete the code.

Hey not trying to be a know it all or anything but lighting worked on mine. Maybe you should try this:

+ Code Snippet

`set up computer
sync on
sync rate 60
cls
hide mouse
color backdrop 0
set ambient light 100

`prepare texture
create bitmap 1,64,64
ink rgb(255,0,0),0
box 0,0,64,64
get image 1,0,0,64,64,1
delete bitmap 1

`make cube
make object cube 1,100
texture object 1,1
set object 1,0,0,0


`main loop
do

`rotate object
if rightkey()=1 then yrotate object 1,object angle y(1)-0.5
if leftkey()=1 then yrotate object 1,object angle y(1)+0.5
if upkey()=1 then xrotate object 1,object angle x(1)-0.5
if downkey()=1 then xrotate object 1,object angle x(1)+0.5

`end loop
sync
loop
