Hey YAll!!

Im writing to ask sommin that only the moderators and advanced scripters may know.... Im trying to use DB Pro as a Main Manu for an FPSC game. Its going to have a linnk to each of the other levels. That part is sorted but i did have severl problems.
This is my big problem now. I want to have it so at the wnd of each level, it loads a quick bit of script and increases X by 1. Obvoisly at the end of each level it will increase by one and my DB Pro program can then use it to determin the level your on and only allow you access to levels upto your current level and it could then also have unlockables ect....
This method is also a solution to the problem of beginning each chapter of the story with no weapons and picking up limited amo throughout....
Anyway the unlockables part i think would be great if i could get it working. Thanks for any help...

There is no way to write to an external file with the stock FPSC, or save the variables from level to level.

Have the user manual enter a code they received from the previous level.
So each level could actually give different codes depending on the users actions in the level so they could be sent to any other level.
Then when the exe ends and your program is returned control the user would input the code and then the program would run the proper exe.

No, I'm not a DBPro expert, and I have not made any menus for FPSC with DBP, so its just a thought.
