So what do you expect? Someone to do the coding for you? Do what we did, LEARN TO CODE.

Right, programming is one of those pull yourself up by your bootstraps skills. You need to read and read again, the manuals, the on-line help files, all the example files, and these forums. It usually takes several months of self study to begin to get the hand of it.

Thats right it will take a lil time to teach yourself how to program
About 3d modelling you will have to work much harder ..
I hope that you will find out that you got a talent for 3d modelling
Cause most of the darkbasic progrmmers are not the best modeler there is . so programming is 1 thing but modelling is more important to create a good 3d game . the reason is that 3d modelling is harder to learn ///

DarkBASIC Pro isn't really going to help you make a model. You should download a trial of MilkShape3D from http://www.milkshape3d.com/ and use the video tutorials found at http://www.planetquake.com/polycount/cottages/blackboard/tutorials.htm.

That will help you with models and it won't cost you a dime. Those video tutorials are fantastic! One of them walks you through every function and tool in MilkShape3D. There's tutorials that will teach you how to make a weapon, and texture it. You can use the knowledge you gain from those tutorials to make your 3D objects and import them into DarkBASIC Pro. Where you go from there is entirely up to you. I'd suggest doing some small exercises in programming basic first. Try making a sprite move, and then try making the sprite respond to keystrokes etc... Don't try to do everything in 1 sitting. You won't learn anything from that. Use flowcharts! That's always a valuable tool.

DBPro has a manual doesn't it? Read it. There are a lot of examples that come with DB so why don't you put them to use?

I've been keeping an eye on your subject headings. It makes you sound like a whiny 4-year old baby. Stop making annoying subjects like that.

Hey Darkwolf, sounds like you really need that 3d Gamemaker package advertised on this site more than DarkBasic. Check it out. From what I've read you can put together some pretty neat stuff with very little programming...

Argh, no. 3d Gamemaker is fun to dink around with, but once you actually start to try and make something serious it becomes a huge pain in the butt. Maybe he should just wait for FPSC, good idea with 3dGm, but wrong program.
