I couldn't find it in GAMBAS 2 so I built GAMBAS 3. It had the new method,
however I was unable to test it because Image.Draw() seemed not to work.

I'm working on a GAMBAS program and want to allow it to be distributed freely

I'm developing a game which requires static polygonal model rendering with 2D
bit blitting-style overlays. These are my eventual requirements:
1) Render a 3D heightmap with arbitrarily-specified tileable texture maps.
2) Render static 3D models on top of the heightmap.
3) Render 2D images on top

You only need create the file once, then copy it whenever you need to
during testing. If you really must create the file every time, let dd
do it by using Gambas' Exec command.
