I recently downloaded Blender and went through the first 4 video tutorials. I've started to get used to making objects in Blender.

Today I tried to export a non animated 3D object in .3ds format.

I then put that into a Dark BASIC Pro version 5.9 test application:


The object didn't load and simpley came up with a message saying:
Couldn't load object at line 5.

I checked to see, just in case, that the object was where it should have been, (next to the .exe) it was.

So why didn't it load?

It was a simple cube that had 2 points slightly exrtruded so that when I viewed it, it wasn't just a grey square.

What is going on?

EDIT:
I just tried a .x of the same object, and it worked. Why doesn't a .3ds object work?

Ahh, what's going on????

I made an object in Anim8or and exported it as a .3ds and Dark BASIC Pro can't load that either.

WHAT AM I TO DO?

EDIT:
What the?

Now I'm really confused.

It will load a .3ds in version 1 but not in 5.9 (I have 2 versions.)

But I need the objects in 5.9.

Now what am I meant to do?

Export it from Blender directly to x format and animation will work if you export it correctly

Look at the first thread in 3D section

Also .3ds isn't fully supported any more. Use .x or .dbo.

Ok, I also use blender and it works fine for me, what i do is add it in the media section of your IDE, then copy and past the filepath into the "" part of load object(ie: load object "c:\temp\testfolder\test.3ds",1)...Never fails for me and i use 5.9...Even .3ds files loaded from MAX work the same as they should, fully textured also...
