Are you using WinXP? If so, you need to upgrade to 1.1, other than that, I have no idea.

If you are having any of the following problems with The 3D Gamemaker
then please follow the instructions below.

1) The graphics / levels appear totally black
2) The 3D Gamemaker closes down as soon as I do anything
3) Graphics / Textures appear to be missing

You need to modify a text file called setup.ini

This file is in The 3D Gamemaker directory which is usually:

Crogram FilesDark Basic SoftwareThe 3D Gamemaker

Open the file setup.ini with Notepad. You can often do this by
right-clicking on the file and selecting "Open With" and then
"Notepad".

Locate the lines that read:

vbcreate=0
vbusage=0

and change them to:

vbcreate=4
vbusage=3

Save the file and then restart The 3D Gamemaker. In most instances
this will resolve the issues you were having. If you find that this
fixes the problem but any EXE files you produce fail, copy the
setup.ini file into the same directory as the EXE file you made. This
will fix the problem for your games also.

If this doesn't cure the problem, you can also try changing the following line (also in the setup.ini file), change

windowmode=0

to

windowmode=1

If that doesn't work please contact us regarding a refund because we don't believe it's going to be possible to make the software run correctly for you.

i will try that,,, but i am a beginner so where is this setup.ini. file i am looking in the gamemaker file folder in programs but do not see any of those

thanks

Goto My Computer, then find -> C :\ Program Files\Dark Basic Software\The 3D GameMaker\ it should be in there..
