3d Objects

Ok So i know TGB can work with 3d Objects. But is there a program out there that can take a bunch of 2d pictures of an Object and Make them into a 3d Object?

There are different programs to 3D-itize photographs, but they are often expensive and rarely useful for game developers. For layering backdrops for video or print publication, they can be a nice addition to your workflow. But not so much for what we do. Rather, you should use a 3D modeling application and export to DTS.

I stink at Art in general but I am fairly good with hands on Modeling. I spent 4 hours today working on my Player ship and a couple of other things for my current game. If worse comes to worse I can always just use them as 2d sprites rather than 3d object files. Thanks for the sugestion Though I will keep it in mind.

How do you integrate 3d models on TGB?... because, im workin on a lil STG demo, and im takin the hazzle of takin pics of the model, instead of exporting it... im using SoftImage XSI 6.
