I was flicking through the help files when I stumbled across some light map commands. Apparently you are able to create light maps for static and dynamic objects and apply them all with native DBP commands. This is the example that comes with it:
cls 0 : ink rgb(255,255,255),0 : circle 16,16,14
scorchimage=1 : get image scorchimage,0,0,32,32
set static universe 40*100,21*100,40*100
tfile$="universe.dbo"
if file exist(tfile$)=1
dividetexturesize=0 : load static objects tfile$,dividetexturesize : omax=1
else
collision=2 : Arbitraryvalue=0 : shadow=1 : portal=1 : o=1
for x=0 to 10 : for z=0 to 10
make object box o,100,5,100 : position object o,x*100,2.5,z*100
make static object o,collision,Arbitraryvalue,shadow,portal : inc o
if x=6 and z=6
make object cube o,25 : make mesh from object 1,o : position object o,x*100,-10,z*100
for l=1 to 15 : add limb o,l,1 : offset limb o,l,0,l*28,0 : make static limb o,l,collision,Arbitraryvalue,shadow,portal : next l : inc o
endif
next z : next x
for w=1 to 4
if w=1 then sx=1000 : sz=50 : px=500 : pz=0
if w=2 then sx=1000 : sz=50 : px=500 : pz=1000
if w=3 then sx=50 : sz=1000 : px=0 : pz=500

However, this is what I get when I run the program:
If I rem out this line of code, it works:
create light maps texturesize,texturequality,lightmapsavepath$
However, that's the exact command I
need to see what it does
Any help?
