Hi I have a simple test for the bump mapping.. I have tried and tried but cannot bump map anything other than a primitive box.
I have tried loads of 3DS and X objects and even the other primitives such as sphere but it just crashes every time...
please help, here is my code... like I said, just a simple test...

set point light 0,-200,200,200

load image "cupboard_bump.tga",1
make object box 1,50,50,50
set bump mapping on 1,1

do

cx#=wrapvalue(cx#+mousemovey())
cy#=wrapvalue(cy#+mousemovex())
cz#=wrapvalue(cz#+mousemovez())
rotate camera cx#,cy#,cz#

if upkey()=1 then move camera 5
if downkey()=1 then move camera -5

if leftkey()=1 then position light 0,-200,150,200
if rightkey()=1 then position light 0,-200,200,200

sync

loop

I have tried replacing the "make object box with anything and it just doesn't work, it just crashes..

Have you downloaded the latest patch and tried it then? If you have and it's still not working can you please send me the models that you're having problems with? My email address is mike@darkbasic.com Thanks.

Are you sure that your 3D-card supports bump-mapping?

I didn't steal it!

I have a GeForce 2 MX 400 and DBPro says my card dont support bump mapping, although Direct X has had bump mapping since DX6 . Also Doom 3 runs supposed to run on a GeForce 256 and that has bump mapping?

Strange.. as I know, bump-mapping is done with multi-texturing and all GeForce 2 -cards supports it.

The evil plan is now even closer!

Im having loads of problems at the minute, especially bumpmapping here is the code:

when i run this, firstly the camera does not point at the place specifed, and secondly the sphere is completely black with no texture or lighting.

anyideas? this is really annoying

I also have a geforce 2 mx 400 and I am able to bumb map in DB 1 but not in DBPRO, I know this as I tried the showcase that checks all that stuff on the asteroid and bump mapping was not available. feeling a little gutted..

What is the recommended card for DBP that will support all features that DBP does..???
