Hi,
I just ordered VbPro yesterday and I remember reading somewhere that I get a copy of cartography for free? I could be wrong of course, it has been known to happen from time to time

Anyways, I was just wondering if anyone knew anything about it. I'm not angry or demanding to get an answer. Just wondering if I really did read that or if im just retarded.

I was thinking maybe when i get DBpro in the mail it will come with a code or maybe they will e mail it to me? Looks like a cool program, would be nice to get it for free.

If im wrong, please disreguard this post.

By the way I my order went through shareit??


Oh and while im on the subject - how about dark matter- worth it?? or would it be better to program my own stuff?

Well, it depends on the package. For example, the Super Game Creators Pack includes: DBPro, Texture Maker, 3D Canvas, Cartography Shop, DarkMATTER and 6 months DBDN Membership as seen at the top of this webpage, and there are also other packages, it just depends on which one you bought.
About Darkmatter, same answer, it depends. If you're brilliant at 3D modelling, texture creating and have a large database of sound fx and music, its not worth it, or you might not need any of these. However, if you're a beginner in all of the areas, it might be smart to get it, because you wont be able to do all this after a few tries, but you have to practice a lot to gain each of these skills.

Whatever I did I didn't do it!

Is darkMatter easy to use? I can just add characters into my program? Im sure it's more comlicated then that, but thats the basic idea?

Yup you got it.

I don't have dark matter myself, but basically it has all the models(most of the models with animation) built with the animations, and you basically just type in the code to load them in the game, and work from there.
Very simple, if you practice 20-30 minutes a day for about a month I can almost guarentee you'll have a good(well playable) 3d game(or 2d if that's what you perfer)

And since I havn't seen you before, welcome to the forums.
