Also as a side note: people making Game Makers 3D sing for them like this is always wild to me given it felt like staring directly into hell with my little experiments lmao
Yeah, you really gotta learn EVERYTHING in order to make a 3D game in GM these days <__<
Them getting rid of the d3d_draw_shape functions and forcing you to set up a vertex format, construct a static vertex buffer etc makes it like 100 times harder than it used to be in the GM6/8 days... and most of the lightning/fog stuff is broken so you need to learn shaders as well if you wanna make things look good...
