I believe you have to "repaste" your sprite inside the main game loop.

Inside your main loop just put

Sprite 1,0,0,1

Me too. I am using DBPRO (trial). I am using PASTE IMAGE and loading a picture. It works. But when I load a sprite after that, the sprite appears but the backgroung goes.

In darkbasic, I think instead of 'PASTE IMAGE', you have TEXTURE BACKDROP , which allows you to load the background. But in DBPRO, it is obselete.

I too am struggling to find out how to solve this problem.

OK so im judging you want this to be 3d. Well in my 3d RPG, I have a sprite as the map, and to keep it on the screen, I have it out of the main loop.

So

SYNC ON
SYNC

sprite 1,0,0,1

do
balalah
sync
loop
