You can use the BlitzMax IDE Community Edition project which has the feature to import .bb
files then convert them to .bmx
files.
In regard to the 3D commands part and as Spark Fountain as mentioned, it is not supported by default, but you can use MiniB3D or OpenB3DMax.
BlitzMax introduces several new features such as classes, real object orientation, inheritance and many more. Anyways, most of the BlitzBasic syntax elements remain or can at least be re-used.
To port your BlitzBasic programs to BlitzMax, I suggest you learn and understand the basic language elements. You can also use the following guide as a starting point.
'
orREM
instead of;
Local array[10]
instead ofDim array(10)
