All you need to do is:

Create a Map (Without dynamic Objects!) then start a Test-Game.
And after the Test-Game is ready you can find the builded Map in the: "Files\Levelbank\testlevel\" Directory.

There is usually never anything automatic in programming so you would have to do it yourself, I guess Sparky's dll would be the easiest way.

ok and also, i tried adding a prefab to an fps creator level and i cant seem to open the door to the room. i tried modifying the settings, but that made the door disappear completely. and also, when i load the game level into darkgdk, it doesnt have its textures. what should i do about that?

Take a closer Look at my Posting:

Quote: "(Without dynamic Objects!)"


The dynamic Objects such as Doors/Windows aren't build into the universe.dbo File.

Oh, no, i meant that the door wouldnt open whenever i ran the level in fpsc, not in darkgdk, but why are the textures doing what they're doing? Shouldnt the textures stay on the map like in the tutorial for loading an fpsc level?

Make sure you copy the texturebank and the entitybank as a lot of the textures used are not allways in the texturebank if your using static objects, just copy the folders and delete the unneeded files such as fpe, x, and bmp files.

For collision you can use static raycasting, aswell. Thats what i use and it does the job fine altho sparky's dll is good
