How about an attach tool so that we can make more puzzles. By saying that I mean, the abilaty to attach one item to another and still have physics on. Great work with the Beta by the way.

well, it would be better to fix bugs first (model packs etc.) and after migration we can ask for that stuff.

I am going to see about adding a warning to the interface when an older DirectX is installed. For now just grab the latest DirectX from the MS site

And lo, after much toil, he placed his keyboard on the ground and lo, he saw that it was good. Then his PC crashed, and lo, he saw that is wasn't good enough!

It was a pain to update. But I did it, and all is well.
At least I'm assuming I'm on 10.1. The error is gone.
But dxdiag still says 10 instead of 10.1. Oh well, that's
Microsoft!

Keep those betas coming Lee!!

I don't know if this has already been mentioned, but has anyone noticed now that when you walk through water it plays the "walking on metal" sound?

BETA4 uploaded. Still quite a list to go through but I thought you might want to get your hands on the latest version, untested but making progress. The last of the work was with Model Pack 9 but there are some mesh and texture files that will need to be modified in a newer model pack installer once V109 is complete. Some VWEAP meshes 'may' need converting to a single vertex only mesh and re-saving and a few of the textures use a strange texture format for Normals which need re-converting to DXT5. Apart from that, the files do not require changes. If you find any issues not already reported in Model Pack 9 and earlier with this BETA, let me know. Right now I am aware of:

1. Some textures are wrong on the HUD model (multi-material mesh texture assigns a little off).

2. Above stated MP9 asset conversions required

Have done some brief testing against default X10 levels and BETA4 seems to be behaving itself so try it out if you like.

And lo, after much toil, he placed his keyboard on the ground and lo, he saw that it was good. Then his PC crashed, and lo, he saw that is wasn't good enough!

Using latest beta but have a bit of a problem. Its been happening on FPSC X10 on all versions. The picture is attached the problem is that a light doesn't light up an area it only makes a circle on the wall where it is placed. Very annoying meaning i cnat have lightmaping in levels.

[Mod Edit: I've made a link for your image as it was to wide.]

http://forum.thegamecreators.com/xt/xt_apollo_pic.php?i=1684649

But apart from that very stable beta and it seems that i have a speed increase with this beta as well. Good to see progress being made now and so quickly as well.

Something that needs addressing though both in FPSC X9 and FPSC X10 is that everything is stretched when using a wide-screen monitor. A widescreen flag would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Lee

I'm also having a bit of trouble. Placing a light entity from model pack 3 with a light under it:

a) The light entity completely disappears. See attached for the entity in the editor.
b) The light marker gives off a weird looking light (I've set the light to light blue). See next post for image.

*Triple post!*

Also, When clicking on a segment in the library, it's not highlighted so you're not sure which segment you're using.

Do I have to create normal, diffuse, and specular maps for model pack 3 stuff? Because I still can't get it working...
No textures appear, just an 100% opaque model with a dynamic shadow.
EDIT: It would be great if you could fix the walking in water bug which causes the 'walking on metal' sound to be played.
Also... I came up with this bug whilst trying to test with a model pack 9 handgun.
And when I finally got a level working. With a model pack 9 gun in it, I picked it up and I'm like...OMG!! Then I switch to it and ... object number illegal at line ... blah.
EDIT 2: Can't get ANY model pack 9 guns working.

Do you have full lightmaps on cause that can cause the long load times. just a thought, try to turn it down in the preferences to the second option it might help out.

I noticed there is an Impact Force setting for weapons now. Is there a gunspec equivalent to this, and if not, can it be added? From my experience with the FPSC source code it would consist of a one-line addition since it can already be set in the map.

New BETA5 uploaded for your amusement. It pretty much hits all the problems we talked about and takes compatibility up to Model Pack 18. I will work on MP19 through MP22 now, and of course respond to any feedback on anything you find in BETA5 in due course. Also some feedback form posts above:

ricwid & The Next & Rampage : I cannot reproduce the water not making splash sounds when you wade through it. The only situation where the water will NOT make a sound is when you have smoothness to ZERO as this tells the engine the water is solid (and so cannot make splash sounds). Not sure if this relates to the 'walk on metal sound' report but in any case I will need an FPM using default media to confirm or reject this bug report.

First Three Skies : Checked the first three skies and they seem fine in the current build so cannot reproduce this bug. If anyone else can reproduce a problem selecting and viewing the first three skies, send a screenshots and we can go from there.

And lo, after much toil, he placed his keyboard on the ground and lo, he saw that it was good. Then his PC crashed, and lo, he saw that is wasn't good enough!

Ok, here you go. The reception tables are from model pack 3, the couches are from the Modern Day pack (not sure which one) and the segments are custom and are included in the download as well as screenshots showing the problem.

I've found two bugs:
Both are demonstrated in the attached FPM.

1) Metal sounds when walking on water. I believe I know the reason. Presumably, you added MP3 sounds to the materials list file - however, in doing so, you may have left out the water ones! I do have the water smoothing set at around 50, I found if you set it to 0 it becomes the sound of the material you are walking on, but if I set it above then it is always metal.

2) Ragdolls are not affected by character scale. Simply kill the enemy soldiers in the room and you will notice that they seem to expand as they die

On the plus side, the swimming fix works great, the aspect ratio is a huge improvement and the option to disable mouse smoothing is most welcomed

While picking up any of the model pack 9 guns I still get the "object illegal at line ...." bug Nice job though Lee...
EDIT: Argh ... still can't get any model pack 9 guns working... And X9 characters are way bigger than the x10 characters. Taller.

Blitzkrieg k : Planning no new features to X10 until the migration version

Rampage : Thanks for the FPM. Cannot reproduce metal water so can you send me a screenshot (like the one attached here), and also the materialdefault.txt file you currently have installed in your FPS Creator X10 folder, thanks. I need to see the end of the file list in the audiobank\materials folder. Also, can you zip up any WAV files that occur after 9WadingA1.wav and email them to lee@thegamecreators.com so I can check those, thanks.

All: Is anyone else experiencing a problem with Model Pack 9 such as transparent swords, object illegal bug. The fresh install of X10, the BETA and MP9 work fine here.

And lo, after much toil, he placed his keyboard on the ground and lo, he saw that it was good. Then his PC crashed, and lo, he saw that is wasn't good enough!

Did you notice the ragdoll scale bug?

Attached here is a screenshot of my material sounds. The extra ones appear to be from Model Pack 3.

And here is my material list text file. I noticed water is nowhere to be found - I guess this is a model pack 3 bug.

It might be a good idea to simply include an updated materialdefault.txt file with the next update that includes both the MP3 sounds and the water sound effects.

The water bug has been solved, you are right the Model Pack 3 is destructive to X10. Solved for BETA6.

Nickydude : The Model Pack 3 and Modern Day assets appeared fine for me (see attached), and the lighting effect is the intended result of placing the light so close to the ceiling. Move it further away and increase the range to have a more balanced lighting, and set it to white if you do not want the blue edging when it hits the edge of its range. Also you can play with the lightmapping values in SETUP.INI to adjust how the light calculates its intensities based on range.

And lo, after much toil, he placed his keyboard on the ground and lo, he saw that it was good. Then his PC crashed, and lo, he saw that is wasn't good enough!

Thanks for the lighting tip.

Is that in game shot yours? If so I don't see the lighting strips that should be attached to the ceiling.
