There was some talk in the past about creating 3D text elements in AppGameKit - has anyone created any workable solutions for this?

This would be quite a task to do automatically with accuracy, although I've just started working on a way to convert 2D pixel fonts to 3D objects.
This is only because I want to be able to bend the letters around and do stuff with them.

I've previously made custom 3D fonts, but it's been quite fiddly. I've got a plugin for lightwave that makes 3D versions of true type fonts but there's always some chars that need hand fixing.
