I read in the "post" of tips for n00bs, that you must NOT get angry when nobody is replying to your posts, but this IS stressing, espessially because I'm going on vacation and I'll be thinkin' of it all the time :S

yes you could, but it wouldn't help, the level.bmp is a black background with a white circel in the middel...

Dbpro renders your level from a greyscale bmp file, get it? Then in the code you put :
load terrain "level.bmp","texture.bmp"

where texture.bmp is your texture
so I guesss there isn't another way to multi-texture it :S

the terrain command, as of right now, is -very- limited and also rather inefficient in terms of memory usage from what I've seen, try loading 4+ terrain maps, it lagged my P4 2.4ghz 512mb DDR GFFX5600 comp, however, my P4 3.06ghz HT 1024mbDDR400 Radeon9000mobile laptop ate it like candy...But you shouldn't have to have max stats like that to handle a PoS terrain rendering system. You'd be better off using matrices and/or just modelling the terrain for BSP.
There is supposedly supposed to be an improved terrain command for the next update of DBP??? or so I hear... Not sure after that. (I just got back from a 11 day technology conference, didn't have time to post, sorry). --Mitch
