Drawing text in 3d

Started by
1 comment, last by spiffycrony 17 years, 1 month ago
I want to draw a text(say x, y, z label for the coordinate axis in 3d) i.e the x, y, z characters will rotate as the model is rotated. I am using directx8 and vb. How to draw the text and how to do it in 3d?

I don't have the SDK here to check, but doesn't the SDK have a sample which shows exactly this? It might only be the DX9 SDK of course...
What about directx8? Is there no similar function to draw the text?
