UPDATE 19/09/09

FPSC V1.16 BETA 10 has been released. There are some really cool new features in the latest BETA, so I've copied the features here:

V1.1.6 BETA 10 - 18/09/09
-------------------------

* Replaced interface with new unified version (X9+X10) (slight layout change, new getting started dialog, etc) - Migration in progress, anyone?
* Can set player start marker lives and health to zero, removing them from influence within the game
* Updated SWITCH2.FPI and added SWITCH2KEY.fpi and SWITCH3KEY.fpi (later requires key to operate switch)
* Added LIGHTCANDLE.FPI to simulate the luminance of fire and candle light in a room (for dynamic lights only) (i've always wanted a script like this)
* Fixed bug causing close portals clip universe camera close to them (removed near plane check from frustrum zero)

@Uman

In my opinion, it's the "icing on the cake" hat makes a good game great. Sure, I'd prefer a better physics system, with ball and joint physics and such, or even fresnel water and improved AI. However, ragdoll would be a great change from the standard crucifix pose we have now...

And from a more personal point, I actually find icing to be the tastiest part of the cake...

If I was ever given the opportunity to remove all the bad from the world, I wouldn't, because for there to be heroism, compassion and all that is good, there must also be all that is bad.

UPDATE 19/09/09

FPSC V1.16 BETA 11 has been released.

* Fixed interface to allow both X9 and X10 serial codes, and re-activated free version code (BUILD GAME redirect)

This is clearly preparation for the Migration, as we know existing users will receive it free.

THIS MIGRATION MUST HAVE

MAX AMMO VARIABLE FOR WEAPONS!

If not it might as well die!

its a realy simple piece of code,

1. check if player ammo is between 0 and maximum ammo specified in gunspec

2. if ammo is between these variables, player can pick up new ammo

2.1 add currentammo to currentammostock
2.3 if ammo > maxammo, stop adding then
display message "Ammunition Full"
2.4 end

3. If currentammo = maxammo then
3.1 Dont pick up ammo
3.2 display message "Ammunition Full"
3.3 end if

4. reset loop until player atempts to pick up ammo

Most of the things included in the migration are probably 500x more complex than this, dont say just limit the ammount of ammo because players can still not use the gun for a while and have a goliath amount of ammo...

P.S Cba checking all 16 pages if this has already been posted...

The migration also needs a sound marker, better than the old one.

This sound marker should have 2 radiuses, inner, outer, the inner radius is where the sound is constantly at the same volume (e.g beside a machine) the outer radius is where the sound begins to fade from the inner radius as the player moves away. The volume and name of the sound should be specifyed in the options section of the entity, It would be helpful if these sound things were triggerable. This is needed so badly.

The old one was very harsh and wasnt good as the sound instantly stoped as u left the zone which blows. Can you implement this for us please?

I've been saying that for quite a while, hope something can be done with it.

I recon that the next release should have a reset of the main huds and come with the huds of X10. I recon that they are of a much better quality than the current X9 huds

Yes this and max ammo variable should have been in it from day 1 of fpsc, even doom had a max ammo variable.

If these arnt included, we all might as well commit suicide

Oops, thanks for bumping this changes. Looks like I missed out some updates.

UPDATE 09/10/09 - FPSC X9 BETA 12 Released

* Fixed bug causing switches to reverse and doors not to show open on reload
* Added new showalluniquetextures=0 flag to show per-entity unique textures
* Added the TRIALPAY offer to a secondary BUILD GAME dialog prompt (to help users who cannot afford FPSC)

UPDATE 12/10/09 - FPSC X9 BETA 13 Released

* Added extra LOG entry at very top of each EXE to test if they run (then fail)
* Changed FPSC-Game.exe to initialise at 640x480 then upscale to chosen (netbook)
* If resolution specified in SETUP.INI not exist, uses desktop resolution
* Save Load dialog now adjusts based on the resolution of the game (run-time)
* Adjusted loading bar progress width based on chosen resolution
* Amended the interface logging code to ensure the trace log appears with the EXE
* NOTE: to trace the interface, set trace=1 in the FPSCI-050.ini file (langfile)

UPDATE 13/10/09 - FPSC X9 BETA 14 Released

* Added PREVIEW button back into the FPI wizard for editing game screens (X9)
* Added new ASPECTRATIO, defaults to one to fix long-running aspect issue
* Interface : Entity and segment library trees collapsed now by default (neater)
* Interface : Now shows ALL the guns, not just the first 17 in Weapon Slot dialog

UPDATE 15/10/09 - FPSC X9 BETA 15 Released

* Added thick black border to the RAWTEXT FPI feature
* Interface now remembers which trees where expanded for entity and segment libraries

Sorry for that, I lost track of the thread

The main X9 and X10 huds are different. X10 has a black aero like hud where as X9.... Is incredibly stupid

Has Lee said anything about the migration lately?

Signature's are stupid.

*BUMP*

UPDATE 2/12/09

Lots of news concerning the migration in the December newsletter. From what I've been able to piece together, it looks like it is going to incorporate DarkVoices (lipsync) into the engine. It will also feature a direct model importer, meaning objects can be imported straight into the game engine and FPSCreator will automatically scale and rotate it and generate the fpe. Another possible feature would be the ability to draw your levels out.

I've copied the relevant text below for easier reading:

No more news about X9 or X10 yet.

Offtopic: This thread is starting to become pretty popular, it could become the most popular thread in the Product Chat if it keeps continuing. We're falling short of Fenix mod, V116 BETA thread, Old Project Blue Thread, Horror Mod, FPS Creator Bonanza, and the Official Community Guide

I suppose to keep the thread alive?

Quote: "When is the migration going to be released, we have been waiting like 2 years."


It's not easy ya know when there is basically only one main programmer. As marc steene said there are things within the newer version that is preparing the way.

As a programmer myself I'm sure Lee wants to go slow -- add a few things and then make sure they are working. Lee is working on other things besides the migration as well. I don't know but I almost can feel it in my guts that we are going to be sing v117 beta start up soon after the first of the year. I think (hopefully anyway) that we will see more features in this and subsequent betas. I'm also guessing that we may find v118 and 119 betas as well and then maybe version 120 will include FPGC.

But, then what do I know. But, I am hopeful. You younger kids have a lot more time in front of you than I do so don't worry about it.

Jeez, I hope Lee doesn't drag it out until V1.20!

Overall, I think this migration will be well worth the wait(assuming all goes well with it). But, I doubt it will ever be comparable to let's say... Unity Engine. And UDK? No way. Never in a million years...

I have a question.

Do you guys think that since this migration will be feature packed and improve FPSC beyond belief that it will be any harder to use? Can we safely assume that it will still have the point and click user friendly GUI that we all know and love (lol) ?

I mean, there will definitely be more cool options and stuff and I have no doubt in my mind that I'll be able to handle it, it's just does anyone thing that the entire interface will get a makeover?

I think one thing we can be sure of is that X9 will receive X10s sleek new GUI editor. Sure, it may only be a change of icons and other things such as the new player start marker, but it certainly makes the map editor seem a lot more sleeker. As for difficulty, I think it will be nearly the same as X10 (adjusting effects using sliders) and the options will be available to those who want them.

Since we haven't heard from Lee for a while about the migration, does anyone have any questions to ask him (I'll soon be sending a compiled list of questions which he will hopefully answer).
