Hello all,

is it somehow possible to render to a 2d gui?

what i was thiking about is have a unit window with the stats of a unit and at the top of the window render the unit itself and maybe a button to turn the unit

is this possible in TGE? and how would one go about to do this?

thx a lot for any hint oyu can give me

Crap. an't remember the resource for this. The old showtool project did this on a rudimentary level, but the resource I'm thinking of did it in a more robust way (it was designed for viewing characters in a character select screen, I believe). But it has been so long that I cannot remember the resource.

Search for inventory and character selection. I think that it had to do with one of those.

GuiObjectView is the name of the resource David was referring to.
