use the loadimage command

How do you use it? That's another story. If you purchase the full version you get sample code showing how to use it in DBP (and Blitz3d). There is no sample DBC code yet but it is something I am considering doing.

buy ExGen - it's good

That imports the entire thing. Do I use a counter?
P.S. where abouts do you live, cos I live in U.K too.

ExSqueeze me? You could export as either a single image or a series of images. Using a series will be easier for people with no knowledge of uv coordinates.

Below is some pseudo code - I haven't used DB in a while so it may be slightly wrong.



It would take a bit more than that to be useful in a game but it should help you start.

Does the samples in the full version of ExGen include how to use it with uv coordinates?

It uses a combination of scale texture and scroll object texture to position the texture at the correct uv coords. This is how the demo for DBC would be done if one was to be written.
