Got the mesh landscape looking good. Got the gunsight on the screen. Got a b3d model of a pistol I want to use. How do I paste the pistol on the screen so that it moves with me???

Hello, You need to attach the mesh to the camera entity using the camera as the parent: using code archive: http://www.blitzbasic.com/codearcs/codearcs.php?code=524 PlayerCam = CreateCamera() gun_mesh = LoadB3D("gun.b3d", PlayerCam) ;then position the gun just in front of the camera: positionentity gun_mesh 2, -2, 4 Hope this helps. . .
