I'm gonna try and make my own 3d engine in Darkbasic. Stupid, I know, and I don't expect it to be any good, but I'm just doing it for fun. Has anyone else tried this? If you have, then how did you organize it? I've got the formulae all sorted out, but I don't really know the best way to organize things. I'm thinking of arranging it into arrays according to object, then position(x,y and z), and then finally which points it's connected to. If you want to see some preliminary code then I've attached some.

I forgot to mention: I'm not planning to have textures or anything. Just solid wireframe. That is, like wireframe, but you can't see through it. And maybe each object will have its own colours.

if you do this then pickup IanM's ASM plugin and learn a little MASM as well as VGA 256Colour 8Bit addresses and calls.
It'll help you to bypass DirectX so you can make your 3D Engine
