Your syntax is all wrong. You need quotes, and I don't understand why you're putting all those paramters there. You've got one more than supported, and there is no such texture mode. You're also missing a coma.

Also, don't load the 3ds, load the .x file.


Come see the WIP!

Make sure you specify the folder it is in, like C:/Foldername/File.3ds.

The .x model needs to be in the same folder as your .dbpro file is saved in. You should NOT specify the folder that it's in, because nobody else will be able to play your game on their computer, as their directory structure will be different from your own. Use relative paths for everything.

Yes, that is what I meant. Hovever, until I get my project off the ground and really think it will be playable, I usually just keep them in a folder and once the game is ready, just move that folder into the folder that the EXE is kept in.

If your file is called "Game.dbpro", and it is located at "C:\project\Game.dbpro", and you have a line of code...

'load object "H-Knight-Move.x",1'

Then that file, H-Knight-Move.x, has to be located at...

"C:\project\H-Knight-Move.x", which is the same folder as the file .dbpro. That is the default location DBP looks for a file.

Hope that is clearer.

Use relative paths.

Meaning you can create a "media" folder inside your project's folder.

To keep things organized you should start off with this method. By using this method you can organize your project even further by adding more directorys. (Sounds, Images, Models, etc).

Example
Project Folder: "C:\Projects\MyGame\"
Media Folder: "C:\Projects\MyGame\Media\"
H-Knight-Move is located in Media Folder.
"C:\Projects\MyGame\Media\H-Knight-Move.x"
