cubemaps? realtime? Here we go!

Hi folks,
while working on my other projects I have started to research why the cubemapping doesn't seem to work in Leadwerks in Realtime.
I have debugged through the code ( I was using Blitzmax to have access to the full debug output and fields of textures and buffers) and found out that
it seems you can't create a real Leadwerks buffer for Cubemaps, I have also investigated TylerH' s early approach after the CreateCubemap command was added and from my experience with miniB3D extended I came to the conclusion that something must be wrong in Joshs solution and handling for realtime cubemaps.
In Tylers lua sample he creates 6 buffers for each side of the cubemap, which is not needed when using fbo (Framebuffer objects). With this in mind I have
integrated my old fbo code from 'miniB3D extended' and stripped it down to just support cubemaps and fit it (maybe a bit messy) into the existing buffer system (no I have no source license). The first result was promising and so i was extending my sample to handle full cubemaps and i was amazed how fast the result was.
This is the result:
The real fps without recording is double as high as it is showing in the video.
Here is my code:

One downside is that currently I get INVALID_ENUM error in debug mode, but I have no idea why as it is thrown from engine itself. Also this is unfortunatly a Blitzmax only hack as it needs some access to some not provided fields. But maybe Josh can use this code to finally integrate proper support of realtime cubemapping into the engine.
thx for reading
