you cant do 3d isometric in darkbasic. The closest you can come to it is placing the camera miles away from the area ure veiwing
and use the command
SET CAMERA FOV
and set the angle to as low as possible.
the real reason people use isometric is that its quicker that true 3d
but isometric in db is just an alteration to true 3d, with no speed diffrence.
Id go for 3d myself as 2d in DB is
also youre walkin b4 tou can run.
