Ok my friend has made a basic map in World Studio and i want to put it into Dark GDK so i can walk around on it etc. but i have a few problems

1. I have no idea how to do this with code
2. He says his Import/Export control is greyed out or something
3. I'm not sure what file format he needs to save it as (.BDO i think)

So could anybody tell me the steps as to how to get the map (could he just file send to me or do i need world studio as well) and get it working in Dark GDK with the code?

Your help is highly appreciated

thankyou

Has he payed for 3DWS, you cant save/export unless you register the product.

He can export as .dbo or .x, export it to the folder where main.cpp is for his project, then use:

You can also import 3dw files directly into DGDK using a plugin. Hold on while I search for PixelPerfect's thread...

EDIT: Here you go: http://forum.thegamecreators.com/?m=forum_view&t=125713&b=13 Don't forget you also have to activate the program in order to save and export.

Currently working on - A new engine with Dark GDK. Let's do this!
