DBPro doesn't like 3ds. You'll need to either find a .x exporter for Carrara or convert it using a converter. DBPro likes .x and .dbo formats.

Shadow Coderer,

Select your root of the object, "export" it as a 3ds or "Save as".

I don't have Carrara at work so don't know the precise menu option.


BUT!!!!! remember, Carrara only saves animation info in its own format, objects saved at 3ds will be static.

I recommend Milkshape. Or if you are rich, 3dsmax.

Shadow Coderer,

as a side note, if you check the Carrara forums on Daz, they are talking about creating a DirectX plugin....

and besides, I use carrara 3, and it's strictly for video use, not game models.
