Hi to all
Since I have all fpsc x9 model packs I started to convert them to GG and I 'm using PredicateC tool and it works fine .. I manage to work about everything except characters and weapons but other work well

I noticed that even into fpe file the models are marked as static into the editor the appear as dynamc and I must to make them static pressing Y key on keyboard or from proprieties button..

is the a way to avoid this

defaultstatic = 1 should make them static by default in the .Fpe
Just double check that's your setting ?

FWIW, I've spot-checked several X9 weapons and most are able to drop into GG with relatively little changes.

For the most part, they just tend to look plastic wrapped as they generally don't have normal maps or specular maps (the now-stock fantasy weapons also have this problem). The plastic look can be diminished by reducing the global specular slider although that's really not the most ideal solution.

Another common problem is with positioning. I find that the gunspec settings for forward=x and simplezoommod=x each need to be increased by around 5. That usually does the trick if the weapon FOV slider is set to around 60.

You will also need to replace the crosshair.dds with a GG-compatible one (swipe one you like from a known-working GG weapon).

There are several other differences in gunspec but they are generally fine tuning tweaks because some of the input ranges are different. The notes above will usually get you going in the right direction though.

For pickup items, basically just follow the FPE settings for the stock stuff and assign the appropriate lua script.

Ahh this is because of the way it was made.....

My money says if you put this into blender or similar the model will be halfway in the floor grid and was saved that way ...
You could probably put it in a model program and rectify it ( raise the height ) but in GameGuru its a case of raising it manually I think

I will look into it further for you ... see if there is a workaround

Hi JC_lEON

Back as promised .... and the issue is as I explained...But .. if you add .. offy = 0
to the fpe file or edit if its there you can then play around with the figure to set the right default height

Hope that helps

Is that caused by the shadow of the trees ?

I see that you maybe you don't have a model program to check these meshes original position.

Can you give me a couple of the items names and packs, and I will import it to my model program and check the position of them for you, and give you an answer, so you don't waste a bunch of time.
