I've done a re-install a couple times to confirm this, but in DBPro 6.6, the documentation and keywords for all the following commands are missing:

ATTACH OBJECT TO STATIC
DETACH OBJECT FROM STATIC
DISABLE STATIC OCCLUSION
ENABLE STATIC OCCLUSION
DELETE STATIC OBJECTS
LOAD STATIC OBJECTS
MAKE STATIC OBJECT
SAVE STATIC OBJECTS
SET STATIC OBJECTS TEXTURE
SET STATIC OBJECTS WIREFRAME ON
SET STATIC OBJECTS WIREFRAME OFF


Anyone have the documentation for these, or know why they are missing?

or know why they are missing?

Because DBP doesn't support static objects?

If Static Objects aren't supported, then why are all these commands in the Help Index, and why do they all actually work just fine?

Steve Vink's tutorial on using FPSC levels in DBPro, in fact, hinges on using the LOAD STATIC OBJECTS command

Odd, I thought they were removed from DBP and that only DBC supported them.

It may be the commands added for fpsc so they aren't official (a bit like ODE).

I thought static objects were taken out of DBP in favour of the BSP system

If you read the upgrade notes for 6.0 (you can read them here: http://forum.thegamecreators.com/?m=forum_view&t=29734&b=15), you will see that those commands exist solely for compiling fpsc projects and they exist in the gamefx dll. They are unsupported for DBPro. There was talk about some official documentation but we have been waiting over a year for a promised update to the normal help files, so seeing any help files for those commands is probably never going to happen.
