Ack! It's revenge of the newibe tutorials! Have you tried to run that code?

When you do "set display mode width, height, depth" without defining the variables "width", "height", and "depth" they equal zero... so you're saying "set display mode 0,0,0"... which (last time I checked) is an invalid screen size.

Try:


Of course that's also the default screen size so it's not really needed either. Also when you want to add code that loads media... always attach the media to the message so the newbies can run your code without changing it.

Is that a reference to yourself?


Great Britain would be Amazing Britain if it wasn't for idiots like you bringing down the average!

I'm hardly think this qualifies as a tutorial

It's nice that you want to help (as few people do here) but it would probably be a good idea if you got some more experience with DBPro before making tutorials for other people.

True... you're no longer sucking the Darkbasic breast for beginning newbies... but you're still in diapers.

DB Mad,
Dont worry. Its a good thing that you tried this, but you are not close enough to making a tutorial and NO WHERE close enough to making one for an RPG.

Sorry, but keep working. When you get as good as me, THEN you can write an RPG tutorial

Hey, wait, this gives me a really good idea!
