Does FPS Creator work with Dark GDK? I would like to export files to use in c++

I downloaded this in hopes of being able to add my own programming style to the game. Yet is this actually possible. I feel already like canceling this membership.

The first video should be useful.

Okay I've been watching those videos and fiddling with this all day. So far the only thing I can do is create a world in FPS Creator and load only the static frames from the level. There are no textures.

I even tried copying the levelbank and texturebank folders to my root project directory, but I still the textures do not show up. I am ready to throw this FPS Creator out the window.

I am using the Free version, but I have ordered the full version.

According to the documentation, FPS Creator is supposed to be compatible with Dark GDK. Here is what it says in a help file.

******************************************************************

This may seem an unusual choice for hooking up with Dark GDK as FPS
Creator is a complete game making kit. However, one of the neat features of
FPS Creator is the ability to save your map into the DBO (Dark Basic Object)
format. This format can be loaded directly into Dark GDK. It is a great choice
for making game levels as it is incredibly easy to use and capable of very
effective results.

*****************************************************************

However this is not the case and does not seem to make it easy to make your own world and view it within Dark GDK later. Has anybody else had any success with doing this?
