Hey everbody, I finally got collision in using the function SC_DrawObjectBounds(), but This only draws the bounds of the object if it weren't scaled. I was wondering how I could fir the ObjectBounds to an object that has been scaled.
For example.

If I scale an object
dbScaleObject(113,10000,10000,10000);
Then set bounds to it.
SC_SetObjectCollisionOn(113);
It would only draw bounds 1/10000 of the objects size.

Saying that my skill with the DarkGDK library is mediocre is generous.

Try SC_UpdateObject...

I tried but it didn't work. Is there a specific order I should but these functions in?

A simple way around it would to get the objects coordinates and use a SphereCast for collision. Usually after all your transforms etc just the SC_UpdateObject does the trick unless your collision detection is checking the wrong group.

You have to scale the object before setting it up for collision. If it needs to be scaled when it's already set up, then delete collision data and set it up again. If it's frequently scaled, then use SC_allowObjectScaling, that will cause "updateObject" to update scale data as well (see Sparky's help).
