if im not mistaken the answer is no. In DBC you only get one camera to work with. the only way to do it would be to make the camera switch back and forth really fast, but it would greatly slow down the game. you need DBP to use multiple cameras

You can achieve the same effect with a few different commands.
Here's some DarkBASIC quad screen code.
I don't know the source but the mod date was November 4, 2003.

Look here:

This is a good split screen code for dbc

@heartbone, your code uses 4 syncs, it is possible with just one try it out!

well i planning on saving up dbp as quite a few things that dbc dose not have that are really imporantant like i planning to convert all the levels of this game im working on to bsb and use collolsion and also it supports boned animation there are alot more features i may need to make my game sucsesfull by getting DBP hopefully thse problems will be ilimnated.

and as all of my games i try to not limit the quality of the 3d art so in using 1 camera for 2 jobs it will slow down my game also making me have to cut the level of detail in my game threfore making it rubbish plus less people will be able to play my game jew to lack of speed such as POOR : ram, cpu, graphics card

in conclusion i will get DBP thow i only £12 so i will have to jobs
