Hi there everyone, My name is Brad and yes im an addict. Im addicted to MMOs!

Anyways im long time listener, first time caller, so please be gentle!

My question is about bryce 7 and DBPro,
ok so I want to use the landscape from Bryce 7 for my game world but it wont load properly if at all. Does anyone have any experience doing this?? I know that the free version of bryce 7 is for non commercial use only, but I will buy that later as the free version right now is already spectacular.

also Im using code snips from the tutorials ( which will be changed later on) but for right now I want to add "LOADING xx%" where xx = how much in percent the game has loaded.


as it stands, if the terrain loads it shows this big fuzzy picture that doesn't look anything like the auto generated terrain that bryce7 made. Again this will be changed later as I get more use to DBPro and bryce, right now I just want to see it in action.

so any help for the noob would be greatly appreciated.

Hey Brad, I dont have Bryce 7, but Bryce 5.5, so it's practically the same. Here's a quick little program I made that loads in a Bryce terrain model in .x format.
It's good advice to stick to .x models for DBPro, or the native model format .DBO.
Also, setting your framerate to 240 is overkill and not necessary.

Hope this gets you started?

Cheers
