Hey,
I am totally new to DB and programing, so forgive me if this is a really stupid question. I am reading on loading 3d objects, and I can't seem to load them.
The command is LOAD OBJECT filename, number.
What is the filename? What folder does the object have to be in to be loaded? Thanx alot for your time.

Might as well start with 3D...
filename is the filename of the object you want to load. If there isn't a fully qualified path, then its loads in/from the current working directory.

Good news everyone! I really am THAT good...

To load a 3d object, you need to save your code project first. Then you need to have the object in the same folder as your code. Next you just...

load object "myobject.x",1

The filename is the name of the file, and the number is the number you assign to it for later commands.
