  Hi,
  
  I have been a visitor on this forum from time to time, but not participated.
  
  I am interested in making (or finding) a voxel engine with 4DOF, but that can render models, not just landscape like this one: http://www.flipcode.com/archives/Realtime_Voxel_Landscape_Engines-Part_1_Introduction.shtml
  
  I would like to render tings like: http://artho.com/age/pics/catapult.gif
  
  Anyone know an easy-to-understand tutorial or source code for this? Or would like to explain to me? :p ;)

  Re: Anybody know a nice voxel tutorial?

  I don't recall any tutorials on rendering voxel models.
  
  Though you can just get a tutorial for rendering sprites on a mode7 type stage or a raycaster and start there with sprites. Then you'll know at least the distance and point at which to render the model. Then you can just use your projection algorithm from on your 3D Voxel Model or whatever. For sprites it's easy, for a model, a little trickier, but you should be able to pull it off.
