Here is some code for a simple ODE project in DB Pro. Try using the same settings in your own program as a test:
rem Init DBPro
sync on : sync rate 60 : autocam off
rem Init ODE
ode start
ode set world gravity 0,-20,0
ode set world step 0.05
ode set world erp (0.2)*2.5
ode set world cfm (10^-5)*2.5
rem Make a floor
make object box 1,500,10,500
ode create static box 1
rem Make a physics based cube
make object cube 100,50
position object 100,0,200,0
ode create dynamic box 100
rem Set the camera
position camera 200,100,-200
point camera 0,-50,0
rem Main loop
do
`
rem User prompt
set cursor 0,0 : print "SPACE = Raise object CONTROL = Rotate object"
`
rem Move physics cube
if spacekey()=1 then ode set linear velocity 100,0,40,0
if controlkey()=1 then ode set angular velocity 100,0.2,0.2,0.2
`
rem Control camera
control camera using arrowkeys 0,1,2
`
rem Update physics
for odesteps=1 to 4 : ode update : next odesteps
`
rem Update screen
sync
`
rem End loop
loop
