2D background for a 3D animation

Blitz3D Forums/Blitz3D Beginners Area/2D background for a 3D animation

Hi,

Here's another newbie question. I wanted to try a little effect to include in a future creation. It's very simple (even I could program it :).

So, the effect is 3D letters coming from the center of the screen and zooming until going out of the screen. I had no problem to do this but, later, I just wanted to add a 2D background but everything I tried didn't work :/

Hmm, as I am typing my question, I have an idea of answer. So, my idea is : perhaps, because I'm in a 3D world, the only way to render a 2d background is to create a plane and to texture it with the 2d image I want... Wrong ? Right ?

Thank you for your help
