It IS possible to export the FPSC maps to DBpro but I don't know how, and I don't know if you can do it in the free version.

You can get further with a smile and a gun than you can with just a smile.

You should be able to locate a .DBO file of your finished level. FPSC creates this file when you test the game. You can open that in DBP.

Of course, this lacks the texture and the lightmapping, which you will need to grab from their designated folders as well and code it into DBP to apply those to your level object.


The one and only,

Btw, here what I do. Extract the attached files into your FPS Creator directory. Free or licensed produces will do. Build a FPS Creator level, than click test level. After the level has been tested, exit the level. Close FPS Creator and run LoadFPSCLevel.exe. DBPro source code is included. Its somewhat commented, should you have any issues with it. This way, I can edit the level and DBPro source all from one directory.

It's possible with the full verison but you can't with the free version because you need the compiled map file with the lightmapping settings in.

Actually it is possible with the free version, as that is what Lee uses in the video that I posted a link to.
