I have just ordered DBP from amazon and am anxiously awaiting delivery. Until, then I am wondering about the best way of creating 3D textured worlds. Can DBP handle this alone, or is something like QuArK better for it?

Many Thanks,

Matt

Build them in Quark if you like, DBP can load .BSPs. Or you can put textured objects on a textured matrix to make an outdoor world entirely in DBP.

Well, I have been told Cartography shop is better than Worldcraft hammer edition, & I agree. Only problem is I think it has to be done wall by wall (single section), not room by room (hollow cube.) It really is worth the cash to be able to make a level that quickly & not have to set up a compiler, then make a level, as you can download a plugin to export to .x.

Just my advice,
