Sorry your browser is not supported!

Using the tutorials that are here on this website I tried to open a level I made in Cartography Shop. But when I compile it and then run it I get the message "object does not exist, line 22" As you can see from the code the level has been exported as an .x file.

I did get it to work once, (sorry can't remember what I did) and when it opened the level didn't have any textures, everything was grey. Do you have to load all the textures via the code? while loading the object?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

1. Make sure the .x file DOES exist
2. Make sure its in the same folder as your *.dba and *.dbpro files
3. Make sure you've loaded it via the Media tag in Pro

If you are using DB1 obviously ignore the pro parts If its not this I'm ot sure, sorry

Ok i have done that, (imported the file thru the media browser) and now the error message says cannot animate object. So i deleted the line: 'Loop object 2' which is just after the commend to load the level. It then loads the level but the whole thing is grey. Is this because i have to also load the texture files found in cartogrpahy shop?

*smacks forhead with hand* Baka!

The level is grey and untextured when you load it because you have not put the textures in the same folder as the X file (the level) is. All the textures you have used in a level must *always* be in the same folder as the level (or levels) that use them. Otherwise the level will always appear grey and untextured.
