hmmm that's a bit hard to explain
take a look at cartoon channel / nickelodeon / jetix
some cartoons are 'flat' characters, coloured fields if you wish, surrounded by thick and thin lines, in other words, there's no real 3d
how difficult would it be to create such a thing in purebasic? haven't got a clue where to start, but i think i'd stay away from the regular
3d engines or approaches, any suggestions?

well, i did stumble over your site, but there were a few reasons why i didn't look too deeply into it... one of them was the somewhat 'under construction' looks of the site, i am under the impression that the engine is not ready, or is it?

I know, that's why I said:

But it has already over 60-70 functions and automatic collision.

well, it may be interesting, looks like some sort of opengl wrapper, it's for a very specific purpose so i don't mind using the 'wrong' engine as long as it's cheap
and works
