Hmm, does it export with textures? If so, you need to put those textures in the same path to the model.

yes it dose and yes I did. whats weird is that new projects load blank modles. but old ones load textured modls. I know someone had this too. for I read it in a forum. but that was a long time ago and can't seem to find it.

try rendering the lightmap and setting the ambient lighting in dbpro above 100. I got a similar thing before and that fixed it for me. (make sure you add a light entity as well btw)

check the line in the .x file that says where the textures are. Sometimes, if it is the full filepath, it won't load them. Better to use relative paths.
example:

if it says something like



change it to


and make sure your model and textures are in the same directory, as stated by Mad Nightmare

I got it to work. I thought that the only bitmap I needed was the one it exported. but I looked at it and found out it's just the shadows. and that I needed to copy the images I used. thanks for your help.
