Probably that ,0 - I'm not sure how the static object loading works - but I'll guess that it uses that ,0 to specify the start of the objects, like the start object number, so it can't be 0 because there is no object 0 allowed.

The zero is for texture detail, meaning no reduction, :p. Not sure why that doesn't work, here's what I use in my latest project.

The last bit just works out what detail is needed but would work with 0 or 1 etc no problem. You using a new DB version? I'm on 1.075.

The 0 signifies no texture reduction.

The help files state
Quote: "This command will load an entire static universe previously saved with the SAVE STATIC OBJECTS command."


Is this the way that FPSC saves the levels? (I must be honest, I have never used these commands before)


>Update<

I just compiled and ran your snippet. and the only problem I can see is the sync 60 bit.

This should be



DBP is notorious at reporting error line numbers.

Lol, I beat you to it =PRoF=, but your right about that. Didn't even look at the second snippet lol. It is complaining about your sync typo, theres nothing wrong with your loading code.
Edit - Oh yeah FPS creator makes one large file and you load up the entire level using just that one command. It's pretty cool and very fast! If you manually loaded in all the segments and placed them yourself it would be a lot slower. It's a nice command Although I am unsure exactly what static objects are used as it's pretty automatic. Haven't run into any issues with that as yet..
