I cant find anything wrong with this piece of code:



It says that the object cannot be loaded. The name is correct, and this 3D file was from the media that came with the DBPro disk. So what is wrong.

well I think DBpro is supposed to load 3ds files just fine,
but strangely enough about half an hour ago' I was trying to load a 3ds object and I had same error you had...
so I tried to load the same object in .x format and it loads fine

I tried more 3ds objects... they don'w load... then .x objects fine!

to me is not an issue because I only use .x objects
I just wanted to tell you I had similar problem

Did you try to load any other 3ds file? just to make sure that the file you trying to load is not corrupted?

also try to add a
position object 1,0,0,0
or whatever xyz you need...so that you know it should be on screen btw

NOTE: some time it happens that your "load object" text is not colored blu!!!!
delete "load object" and type it again and make sure it is in blu

I had this before where for some reason DHPro editor does not recognise some command at times... then type the same again and it paints it blue... and then it works

I think you mean doesn't

where does it tell you that patch 4 doesn't support 3ds files any more?

In the release notice for patch 4, and also on the download page : [ur]http://www.darkbasicpro.com/patch4.php[/url] - look at the second from last paragraph.
