Given the fact PA lib supports 3D and that DS LUA is built with it i was wondering that adding 3D graphic support to DS LUA should not be a problem. Is there are any plan to add the 3D functionality to DS LUA in next releases? Should that be the case, any idea on when that could be possible?

It's one of those thing that is on my "todo list".  I will probably implment some simple functions after I get wifi stuff in.  Got any request/suggestions?  I am not terribly good at 3D graphics, so it probably wouldn't be something too fancy.

Not so good with 3D, eh, waruwaru? There's another way. Use other people's stuff as examples. With devkitpro, you get many 3D examples. Also, with a free program called 'RealityFactory', you will find a good graphics engine and info about 3D designing and 3D template design (aka the GRAPHICS {face, legs, clothes, buildings, etc.}) Gmax is a good free 3D designer.

That oughta help ya!  Wink

I am not an expert in 3D neither, but i assume a few basic things as the following should be enough: create 3D poligons, add textures to faces, move point of view/camera. The rest is up to the LUA application programmers.

You do not need to do fancy LUA stuff, just an access from LUA to existing PA Lib functions. For instance, in the next link you have some basic PA Lib 3D: how to define an untextured 3D cube
