Hey everyone, I've been visiting this community for quite some time admiring the awesome work around these forums and trying to learn some stuff about B3D itself. So I've come across a problem with the program (since I'm basically still a huge newbie) I cannot figure out exactly how I can load a .b3d file (made in maplet) in Blitz and apply the lightmap. The test file that came with Maplet has several errors in it which I've not been able to resolve. Thanks in advance for any help. |

Use the 'LoadMesh' command to load the .b3d file into your program. This will automatically apply the lightmap and textures. |

As Axeman said level = loadmesh("test.b3d") Of course you'll need a camera to be able to see it. camera = createcamera() Then you render the world renderworld and flip the back buffer to the visible screen flip then wait or it'll all disappear! waitkey |

Hi "Fess". |

Thanks guys, well I'm one step closer. Updated: Sorry guys, yet another question here. Okay so I can't get b3d's to load in Blitz but .x format will load but without anykind of lightmap. Whenever I load b3d I get a pure black screen with no sign of the map at all, even when moving about with the camera there is no sign of my map at all. Could anybody help or lead me to a soloution? Thanks Hey Puki |

Did you download all of the upgrades for Blitz3D, i had the same problem. You need to download all of them because one of them changes Blitz so that it has support for .b3d files, why they didn't include the upgrades in the new sales, i don't know, but life goes on. Just look in the Account section then click on product updates. good luck! |

Well, I can't exactly do that. My brother bought Blitz before and the only thing I've got registed here is Maplet, so I can't really get the updates since I have no idea what his REG code is. |

Not also called "Chong" are you? |

Nope, never posted here before. The only community I belonged to prior to coming here in Gaming Ground Zero (which if you don't know is a RPG Maker community that focuses more on 2D game creation) |
| ||
So you're using an illegal copy of blitz then? Or do you and your brother use the same computer? |

This is my brother's computer but he's off at college, and not so easy to get ahold of. I'm just gonna solve my problems by buying my own copy later this week. |
