Yeah, I was wondering if anyone knew any good game making tools with 3d built in... I was gonna work on a cool new game, and I want it in 3d.

Scoff if you'd like, but take a look at the GM Irllicht(0.9) port, using a lot of DX9 functions:

game maker owns. M got me turned onto it, and i've managed to make a 20.4Mb game that actually works :O well, half the time :P i need to optomize!

enjoy, what exactly is that?

They're screenshots from the Irrlicht 3d engine (c++, check around sourceforge for more info) that has been ported to Game Maker 6.0...

It's got bump mapping (the terrain in that second image is all based off of a height bitmap, meaning very in-depth designs...)

Also, notice the FPS in the screenshot...it usually runs at around 200 FPS. Which is a tad bit breater than the 30 FPS usual GM 3d games run.

GM also has built-in 3d functions, but it's still very raw and primitive.
