When importing custom models into my game, the physical location seems to be out of alignment with the textural location. In other words, I can walk through walls of my buildings, and I'm bumping into walls where I don't see any. does anyone know why this is happening?

I'm no expert but I believe your collision map is not exporting properly. What format are you exporting in? I am not familiar with importing assets into FPSCR but I know from UDK that, that was something we ran into when importing the collision map from blender as an .fbx file. I'm sure this didn't help but may give you something to look into.

Hello,



I had have a similair problem.

In my case it had to do with scaling and the wrong export settings from the plugin.



Now i export my model to a obj. file bring it in milkshape. texture it and expport it in milkshape to a directx file. that works for 99 procent of my models.

There are still some models with that same problem, but the most are correct now.

Hope that helped a little bit for you.

Harry is probably correct on this being that FPSC:R uses only the .x format at this time. It definitely seems to be an export issue.

Anyone got experiences of exporting from fragmotion? My collision seems to be just one big box, around the outer extremities of the model, not on the edges of each section, so your not able to enter the models area at all.

Have you tried setting the collision mode to 1 in the FPE? I believe that's the polygon detection option and it works for me.

Make sure you save your model X=0, Y=0, Z=0 position, delete .BIN and .DBO files and try again

Problems with white dot in editor FPSCR:



Okay, when ever I try to make a new model and try to import it in the FPSCR editor I get a white dot for a model. Why? If you see the screen shot I have the model loaded into A Directx model viewer and it shows up perfectly. My x file is made right, the fpe file is right, but when i load the new model from entity bank i get a white dot and no model. I can move it anywhere in my scene. and edit it by right clicking. But I don't know why it only shows me this dot! I built the model in blender for the .x file! Am I missing something here? Using the Beta 1.003 version. Is their a special way of importing custom made models? Any Help would be appreciated!

You can get the white sphere when your model isn't present. the sphere is an old debug object from classic FPSC. Ensure your .fpe file is pointing to the correct object and close Reloaded then delete bin and dbo files after any change and before opening again.

Did you export .x file straight from Blender?



If you don't mind uploading your model, I can have a look at it for you?

Ok, I figured out what the problem was I had =(model).x Instead of = Model.x. Thanks, @Rolfy, others who replied. I finally figured it out. Here is my screen shot now inside FPSCR.

Thanks. One Question though @Rolfy how to get the model to move up and down with the + - keys so I can stack them on top each other? do i have to set some settings in the fpe x=1 or Yrot=1 do you know what i mean! To get the model to move in FPSCR. Everything else is working but cant stack them in the editor?

Thanks!

I have exported with blender, then checked and sized it in Fragmotion, then exported it again. Not sure on what I'm doing wrong,



Centered it, still same problem, it uses the outer perimeters of the whole object, so you walk along the top height of the mooring posts on my quay/harbour.



Not sure what settings you are meant to choose when exporting from Fragmotion to be honest, could it be this.



Not sure what you mean by FPE
