I was wondering about the media editor. Since Windows Paint is good for bitmaps and Windows media player is good for .mid files, What is the right editor for 3dX files? This is my first time in the forums so I may have meesed up.

In your Dark Basic tools folder, you should see a tool called DBBrowse or something like that, it can view 3D models, but can't modify them...

i usually like to use quick3d. it is free and you can convert your models to a lot of other formats! If you want to modify the models, I like to use milkshape. It isn't free but there is a trial of it. It is pretty easy to learn i think.

Hi Dan,

The link above has a ton of useful information from this forum. My personal recommendation is Blender. It's free (open source), a bit tough to learn, but definately well worth it!

I just wrote a plugin script for it that converts it's output to DarkBasic Classic. You can check that out here:

I also HIGHLY recommend Deled (lite is free, Pro you pay for). The lite version is great for Level Making, and it is super easy to use and exports very nicely to DarkBasic (direct x).

Hope this helps

Enjoy your day.
