The only files that work on FPS are .X you can make them in 3ds Max, blender (free)



The store will be open soon and you will be able to get great work from the modelers on here.

Ahh i see. I was just wondering if it was possible and Alright to take some work from the above link convert it to a x file then and play around with in the Fpsc:r

?. I like making models and i'm starting to get alright at it. But UV Mapping is the boring part.

You can use any model if its just to play around with but when it comes to selling your game or even giving it out it may violate some laws.



If you see models and it says for commercial and personal use then that's fine they just normally want you to give them a shout out.

Ok so i just downloaded a model - http://www.turbosquid.com/FullPreview/Index.cfm/ID/355937



I took the X file and threw it into Entity bank. I have a folder in there called custom. I opened Fpsc;r but sadly it wasn't there. It was blank.. Am i doing something wrong or?

Hi Tereith,



For a detailed explanation of what steps to take for importing .x files into FPSC-R there is a PDF guide already included in the Reloaded folder.



This is the path on my PC:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\The Game Creators\FPS Creator Reloaded\Docs\Importing models into FPS Creator Reloaded.pdf"



It's still a bit convoluted at the moment but hopefully the Model Importer and/or the Construction Kit will make the process easier



Slainte!

You must have an .FPE file with your .X file and your .DDS (texture) file.



The FPE file is what makes it visible in Reloaded entity folders. IT helps to also include a BMP (64x64) file with the same name as the FPE file.

I dropped it. But decided to work out my own models which work. But are very small. I've been trying to edit the scale in Notepad but it does not work

easier i think to upscale your model before exporting it to .x

PC Specs: Windows 7 home 64-bit, Amd 7900 3gb DDR5 graphics, 8gb DDR3 Ram, Intel i7 3.4ghz
