i have tried loading the following 3d model.
"data\models\ships\storm\storm.3ds"
but it says
"runtime error 7081 - could not load 3d object at line 9"

the path of the file is correct and even in the correct case, but it wont load. When i try to load an object at the same path but with a filename that doesnt exist...
"data\models\ships\storm\storm.3d" (d instead of 3ds)
i get a different error saying the file doent exist. so DBP does find the model but it cant load it. All the texture files are in the same directory, and It works in DBC's media browser, textured, so the files are not corrupt. does anyone know what im doing wrong or have some kind of explanation.

oh.
hmmmmm how annoying. do you know if this will be fixed in patch 5?
i dont like .x. I prefer modeling in 3ds max 4 so i have to save as .3ds then use 3dcanvas pro to convert it. so time wasting, especially since im on a p2 266 with a voodoo banshee.
