vb 3d engine
Hi,
I'm looking for a working vb 3d engine, just for simple things, not for entire games.
Just to create some nice looking eliments.
I know totally nothing about game programming, espessially not in VB.
I have a few ideas for games but i totally do not have the skills (programming nor drawing) to make the games (ideas for 2 RTS, 1 new type(a combination between genres) and 1 for a internet db game (rts)).
Also : does there exist something to use 3d studio max projects/images in Vb games/projects without haveing to write a engine for it (does it exist allready somewhere?) ?
Icheb
p.s. Yes i know my english sucks

Without knowing how to program, you cannot use an engine. There are several "Game Creation Kits" which will almost guarenteed not be what you want. You might be able to find a programmer around here to do the work for you, but youll have to ask around.

I am willing to learn about how i should do it.
I just don't know where to start and how to proceed from there.

I assume you have VB? The best way you can start is to buy a book. I started with Peter Wright's Beginning Visual Basic 6, and recommend it. I think there is a free version of VB on microsoft's web site, the Control Creation Edition. If you dont ahve VB yet, go and download it.

I have the pro edition of Visual Basic 6.0
I just am new to game programming, not to vb :)

Ah, alright. I guess I just misunderstood =). There are a few 3d engines out there for vb, I think TruVision (or TrueVision, or something) is among the best. I've never used it (its far better to make your own =), but you can take a look around for it.
