Hello,

at first, I'am new in programming with lite-c or programming games in 3d in general.

My question is, how can I display a text and image on a 3d object or sprite and manipulate them?
Explain: I want to create a object similar to the "flight managament computer" in a cockpit of a plane.
This "control computer" is standing in a room and I would not display it in 2d in a window or panel, in a extra view. It should display statistics and things like that.

Can anyone give a hint or a link to a workshop or tutorial?

not sure what you are exactly asking for, but for rendering/view/text/other stuff to textures you need at least commercial edition.(Render-to-texture feature)

I want to rendering a text or a image, wich can be animated or manipulated, for example on a entity. This can only do with the comercial edition?

If that text is created at runtime than yes. If the text or image is satatic than you can paint them on a program like photoshop and use the painted image as the skin of a model and creta the entity using the created model -- that, you can do with free version

i think the pixel manipulation functions work in all editions. you could do your own simple font renderer by copying letters of a bitmap font around.
