Displaying a 3D array

[SLH]

Hi all,

I'm creating a 3D game, and it consists mainly of a 3D array or boolean values. I need a nice and simple set of functions so that i can display them. I don't care how crap it looks, as long as i can view it from any angle, and the blocks are displayed. Does anyone know of any simple functions that can do this?

Its never going to be as simple as you like. D3D will probably be the best bet(easiest).

hey slh
I believe you have to do it yourself
but anyways its not going to be to hard
you could just initialize on cube and than put a for loop (3 nested ones actually) and transform it to x*widht,y*width,z*width and than render it...

Zaie: Thanks for the link, i'll have a look. (I didn't think it would be easy, but as what i want to do is simple (compared with what DX could do), i hoped someone may have done it before.

/\/\isanThr0p: I've never worked with anything more complicated than BitBlt before. Hope fully after going to directx4vb, i'll know how to initialize a cube. I've done what i want to do in 2D, so that i could work out how best to approch the prob, and agree that your method is probably the easiest (It's only a 3D array of Boolean Values after all).

yeah Zaei posted right when I was writing my post... I think after reading through the first 4 tutorials you should be able to do what you want...
