ok m8, I tried the waypoints tutorial, been successful aswell thanks..

just 1 problem I ran into, when I placed the way points for my guard others joined the route and was not ment to how to stop this from happening please m8?. I tried to set them as static and immobile but nothing changed they still went out of their way to follow the way points for the guard sadly even when I placed the other soldiers on roofs thanks in advance.

have fun stay safe

at this moment its not quite possible because they goto the nearest

way point to there location but I think that if you have a separate waypoint

that runs lose to the first it might be possible.. I am hoping that they

setup waypoint allocation to the entity's so that objects and characters

can be set to a specific waypoint.

will test this for you tomorrow

thanks!

these have been really useful for getting the hang of fps creator really fast, please keep going as they add new features



this seems like a really stupid question but is it possible to freely rotate the camera in edit mode? (adjust the angle i mean)

as it's very difficult to see how high up an entity is in the default top-down view - i notice u didnt do this in your videos either

(or maybe a link to some standard key commands as they don't seem to be covered anywhere?)

Good work on the water tutorial was hoping I didn't have to make one as I'm not so good at tutorials

Just a hobbyist but hey putting together a FPSC Reloaded wiki with links to mods, effects and tutorials, made it fully public so anyone can edit it if anyone wants to help out anyway, here's the link,,,, very basic atm

Regarding the tutorial for "ADDING MODELS FROM PAKS AND STORE", I'm actually using that exact same pack (50) and importing it with the exact method shown.

After importing, the content is viewable when browsing entities and will populate the right hand side toolbar.

But the only thing I've ever seen placed in the scene are white dots.



Is any of the content in the model packs useable in the Reloaded version?



Like most people, I have a fair amount of currency invested in the various model packs and would like to use them.

Thanks!

If you're only seeing dots, it's because the .x is missing. You should check that the path is correct and that the .x file is present.

Thanks Scene Commander for pointing me to checking the path, etc.



Installing per the instructions in the tutorial, "ADDING MODELS FROM PAKS AND STORE".

It states select stand alone install and use the path, C:\Program Files (x86)\The Game Creators\FPS Creator Reloaded\Files\entitybank\



Doing so, leaves some recursive folder information that FPSC Reloaded can't use.

So, the .x files are not found, but no error is given. FPSC loads the data and you can see the models in the entity preview window, but selecting the actual model results in white dots.



I uninstalled and tinkered a bit.



In addendum to the BioDragonLord tutorial, select standalone install as described, then insert the path as C:\Program Files (x86)\The Game Creators\FPS Creator Reloaded.



This places the various content into the expected and correct folders.



I've used this method and path on a few model pack installs, this seems to be working consistently as FPSC Reloaded finds the various files and loads the correct entities.

Kind Regards.

No problem, glad you've got things working. In general most static entites from the legacy packs will work.
