The Engine dont support jpg, png, psd only pcx, bmp ... dds (?) what a kind of stuff it is???
Well this is not true for everything but psd: Supported image formats are PCX, BMP, TGA, DDS, PNG, JPG, and WAD.
See this page: http://www.conitec.net/beta/fileformats.htmYou don't need to use the MED of 3DGamestudio, but can create your models in any other program, as long as the file type is either directly supported by the engine or by MED, which you can use as a blunt import tool to get your models into the mdl file format. by the way: the sybex version is not the way to go, as it offers more restricted upgrade/update possibilities.

You will not find a single, decent, game engine, at any price, that will spit out a good game without a little bit of work on your part.
All Gamestudio takes is about a month or two to get use to it and then you can go anywhere if you stay motivated. The templates are easy to put together for a basic shoot-em up, lite-c syntax is simple to learn and understand (compared to C++ and other programming languages, but its easy for a newbie to grasp as well).
Don't expect to make something like Far Cry. Perhaps Gamestudio has the power to do that, perhaps not, but even if it does, professional games of that sort took teams of programmers and months, probably years, to develop.
But if you keep up this attitude you have, all I can say is, don't let the door hit ya on the way out.

" I'm a well 3D modeller but in no one editor of this engine you get workflow ..." Hm... even those who hate 3dgs say it is the easiest for the newcomers to learn. Well... I guess with your"leet" modeling skills you should check out this engine http://www.unrealtechnology.com/maybe there is a sybex version available What exactly were you planning on doing with jpg images anyway?

Well thanks for the comments I am really happy about!!! - But nothing change the reality and knowledge ... If I wrote this to the developer I guess they do nothing ... but the community can change drawback with poweerfull allowance. The Engine dont support jpg, png, psd only pcx, bmp ... dds (?) what a kind of stuff it is??? Yes I bought the extra version 7 of the Engine of Sybex but the trail version from this source dont be better ... The advertisment offers a product whereby the user without knowhow can create a game: this is a lie!!! - That you have work and use tutorials is already true but I pay for this trash ... And what I shoud do now? To work with the editors is impossible to use the documentation is hopeless ... - I'm a well 3D modeller but in no one editor of this engine you get workflow ... bye bye he is one of the guys who thought he could make Crysis with few simple clicks(and his modelling skills ofc.), but he couldnt, then he pissed off. That's all. Sayanora...

very true Quadraxas.. i must say i started into games with 3DGS. By chance.. we had it on school computers installed. It was easy for me to enter game dev. with it. Initially i followed tuts and workshops. I did a complete game using templates. (though art side is very bad) still i got hands on the game dev.. now am using the engine for simulation of crowd. i must say i evaluated many engines before recommending 3DGS to my team. 3DGS was the only one who could support 1000 entities in a single camera view without dropping the frame rate to below 30 fps. Others were running at 3 to 4 fps. some crashed also !

As this thread does not contain any usefull information nor constructive critics, I'm closing it. @adminDUM, feel free to open another thread with constructive criticism, but stay away from harsh comments.
And be careful with sentences like "xyz should be shot", I can see that you live in germany, you don't know how fast the prosecution will ring at your door...
Success is walking from failure to failure with no loss of enthusiasm.
