Line 17 calls the build command to construct the mesh.

vector(40,0,40), vector(0,0,40), vector(20,50,20) ]
nm.colorList = [ rgb(255,0,0), rgb(0,255,0), rgb(0,0,255) ]

nm.face[2].vertices = [ 4,2,3 ]
nm.face[3].vertices = [ 5,2,1 ]
nm.face[4].vertices = [ 5,3,2 ]
nm.face[5].vertices = [ 5,4,3 ]

newModel
Usage
member( whichCastmember ).newModel( newModelName \
{, whichModelResource } )
Description
3D command; creates a new model in the referenced cast member. All new models have their
resource property set to VOID by default.
Parameters
newModelName
Required. Specifies the name of the new model. The name of the new model must
be unique.
whichModelResource Optional. Specifies a model resource to create the model from.
Example
This statement creates a model called New House within the cast member 3D World.
member("3D World").newModel("New House")
Alternatively, the model resource for the new model can be set with the optional
whichModelResource parameter.
member("3D World").newModel("New House", member("3D \
World").modelResource("bigBox"))
