I am highly skilled with Paint Shop Pro v8. I am able to create actual 3D models (such as barrels, cans, etc.) I want to be able to actually put these models into a program (map). Some one please help

Unless I am much mistaken, you cannot make a 3D object in Paint Shop Pro. You can texture objects, but not create them.

You would need a 3D editor such as Blender or 3DS max to create models. Then save them as a .x file, which DBP can load.

Hope this helps!

You are mistakes, but I guess I should have gone into more detail myself. I have a game scripting engine called Torque that allows me to veiw 3D models of paint shop pro textured objects

Besides, creating 3D models isnt the point of this thread, I just want to know how to put a 3D model I made into use.

The reason people are confused is because you say you are making 3D models with PSP. Torque isn't turning your picture into a 3D model. It has built-in primitives, just like DB Pro, which can be textured with a variety of bitmaps.

So, if this is what we're talking about, you can do the following...

LOAD IMAGE "MyImage.jpg", 1

which loads your file exported from PSP. Next take your pick from the following...

MAKE OBJECT PLAIN 1, 10,10
MAKE OBJECT CUBE 1, 3
MAKE OBJECT BOX 1, 8, 6, 9
MAKE OBJECT SPHERE 1, 10...and so the list goes on.

Finally...

Texture object 1,1

and so it's visible, move the camera, and create a loop, here's the complete code...



That's as simple as I can make it for a jump-start into DB Pro...welcome!
