I am trying to make a game like Worms 3D. I seem to be having a problem with loading time. Whenever I play it, it takes about 2 minutes to load a small level. Is there any way round this?

It depends on what code you are using to load the level... If you are using HUGE amounts of loops then it could be the reason..

We need to see some code before we can help you properly...

dont load objects like this

for obj = 1 to 1000
load object "blablabla.x",obj
next obj

but do this:

load mesh "blablabla.x",1
for obj=1 to 1000
make object obj,1,0
next obj

Now the object is duplicated by the mesh instead of reloading, oh, and if you want to apply texture, replace the 0 at the end for the image number of the texture
