2D & 3D graphics

[zxretrosoft]

I have an idea. I can something with 2D and 3D graphics. But I need the combination.
I want to do a combination of 2D and 3D graphics, like eg. In a simulator.



There is still a 2D edge of the screen (there must be a 2D sprites), while the inside is a 3D space.
But I have not found a way to do it. Could somebody please help? Just generally, how to solve this in PB

You can do that:

Code: Select all

  RenderWorld()
  
  StartDrawing(SpriteOutput(x))
  DrawText(0, 0, Str("bla"))
  StopDrawing()
  DisplaySprite(x, 10, 10)
  
  FlipBuffers()

After RenderWorld() and before you call FlipBuffers, you can call spritefunctions.

But isn´t it a better way to use an planemodel? So you could handle with physics, start, landing,...

Thanks a lot! That's what I need, I'll try it ...

Maybe so, but I have no experience with it. It is somewhere an example?

There are multiple Websites with free models. Perhaps there are some jets you can use.
Just make a nodesystem with plane and camera and set the camera this way in Cockpit of plane.
