i'm working on a 3D shoot-em-up (have been for months) but the 1 major drawback i'm having is that I don't have a clue how to use a .x file as terrain. what I am doing is making indoor levels in anim8or/milkshape and then i hope to load them into dbc, but i have no idea how to set the collision detection properly so that they can be walked on. If anyone can help it would be great, and i hope to be able to write a function equivalent to "get ground height" but for objects. anyone help me?

For everything you never wanted to know but will be forced to find out.

(Or just use the snippets provided!)

If all boils down to using the intersect object command to calculate collisions and distances within the level.

BTW DBPro only I think

If its static level then most easiest and fastest way would be to store coordinates (make raster or store info for each wall, flor and sters individualy) in array and use them for detecting if object is colliding or not.
