Well I got it working..... but! I noticed something. When I switch to wireframe mode, I can see every room in the level! Resulting in HUGE amounts of slowdown. Needs some tweaking, maybe?

Lee or anyone else in here please watch this video I made after I installed the beta updates. Any suggestions on how to fix this problem please feel free to post.

My machine specs are:

AMD Athlon 64 3700 clawhammer
2 gig ram
GeForce 6800 512mb VC

Here is the link to the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ANAi4DhkBwM

If you're looking for me, you are sure to find me around the Intel stand as there is a chance I will be showing off FPS Creator X10 during the week. Still sorting out my schedule so no firm plans as yet. When I am not wandering the streets of SF, I will be at the Parc55 hotel in case you want to drop by and say Hi

You think you could change the installer type, like the ones from the model packs? Because it reads that the FPSC installion could not be found. sorry for the bother...

Now, I really want to go since we have an invite to drop by and say hi.

Ah, forget you then. I'll go hang out with Lee.

OOPs, I thought you meant at SanFran.
I would hope that I would be welcome in England.

So Lee should rush the development so you can meet a deadline for a contest? BAH!

Lee deserves a vacation, and its not really a vacation because he is there on business.
But I am sure your level contest is more important than the Consumer Electronic Show that he is traveling around the world to attend.
Come on man, give Lee a break. He's been working hard on the model pack updates too.
You guys are lucky he is so tolerant of your demands, and I say demands because sometimes they seem more than a request.

Quote: "there isn't an uninstall thing for v.108 either"

That's right Lee, don't forget some of them can't delete a file.

Just delete them like the other ones dude.
It would be nice to have an unisntall thingy, I agree, but...
We have to do some of these tasks ourselves if we want his development to be speedy.
Let him work on the fixes not some uninstall program for each update.

You should have backups of everything before doing an update anyway.
So, how hard is it?

All of them except the custom stuff.
Then, install everything from the start for the sure fire way.

Don't go screwing it up and say its my fault you didn't get in the contest. (you could wait for the fix in next beta (keep working on media))
If you don't know how, then maybe you should search the other update threads.
I'm sure this has been answered before.
In fact I think that Lee himself gave step by step instructions on one of the ealier updates.
Search "uninstall", and you'll find the threads with this same question.

Ok, Everything seem to work out just cool until I noticed that where there was a door vent duct there is only a square hole. This is also in my other game files. So whats the deal? And yes this is using the new beta.

The deal is it's a BETA, which means we are testers.
Now that he knows your problem, he can address it while we wait.

For those of you entering contests... you may not want to experiment with BETA versions.
Because they are BETAs and are still in testing, it is a given fact that they may have bugs. In fact it is expected.

If you are not ready and willing to encounter any bugs, then stick to your stable version and don't test BETAs.

Lee, Beta 3 still has issues with enemies ducking away from your fire, if you shoot at their heads they get normal damage calculated... Does this headshot thing calculate it from height, or bone positions?

Location of software change about the OS..
For example in xp in italy the location of program files is: c:\Programmi\TheGameCreators\

For all other i think is :
C:\ProgramFiles\ThegameCreators\

This i think is the my problem for update from 107 to 108 beta..

update: if you want to get of v.108 the easy way, just find the v.107 installer, open it and press repair. It worked for me!

EDIT: No it doesnt. The splash screen says v.107, but the walls still dissappear, and the headshot script is still there.

If you're asking if that's possible then yes, it is. You will have to open up the character's FPE file in notepad and change the "appear" script manually to "appearwithheadshot" or whatever it's called.

No it isn't. Not yet. The whole mp damage thing is different than single player and even though the fpe says run blah script- if fpsc-game detects it is a character it runs its own code.

Well, I won't be making the trip to SanFran, so you guys have fun without me.

Maybe I can get to England for the FPSC convention.
For where I am, the cost of the flights are about the same!?!?!?!
So, like I said before, I'd rather go to England than San Fransico any day of the week.

Have fun guys

Something I've noticed is that when I test game, the FPSC Game.exe that runs itself at that point has the X10 symbol instead of X9, do you reckon this means Lee's been using parts of X10 code?

...I noticed that too.

I'm sure that he is. Quite a while without an x9 update, and then bam, bam, bam...updates in succession.

He had to get them from somewhere...

So why did he say he wasn't porting over X10?

Or....was it a surprise?

Or just borrowing some frame saver code and not any of the shiny features.........
