Create a resource manager in OMain:
/// @desc Create event
resourceManager = new BBMOD_ResourceManager();
/// @desc Clean Up event
resourceManager = resourceManager.destroy();
/// @desc Async - Image Loaded event
resourceManager.async_image_loaded_update(async_load);
/// @desc Async - Save/Load event
resourceManager.async_save_load_update(async_load);Use the resource manager in another object to load its model or just retrieve a reference to it, if it is already loaded.
/// @desc Create event
model = OMain.resourceManager.load("Data/Model.bbmod");
/// @desc Clean Up event
// Free the reference. This is not necessary if you do not want to unload
// the model when all instances are destroyed. It will always be unloaded
// when the resource manager is destroyed.
model.free();
/// @desc Draw event
matrix_set(matrix_world, matrix_build(x, y, z, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1));
