Sorry agian. I've been at my grandparents. Just replace then X*100 with your x co-ordinate. You have to get rid of the for/next loop and just make the objects individually.
How are you making your levels? If you let me know then I'll make you a waypoint editor.

Oh, I know what you mean with the irratating part. The NPCs are going crazy, there collision has stopped working and everything since I've tried to add waypoints, something I'm still working at.
Sidenote
I posted some stuff I'd like to go into a few pages back and one part was better enemy AI along with multiple enemies, can someone help with this?

Arghh...
I'm still having problems with the waypoints because the elf does not collide with them and rotate, he just walks right through them, also nothing else has collision detection the way it had anymore.[ ]
I'm still working at getting working then I can add more NPCS.

I got the waypoints working for the NPC. Now I just need to get the coliision fixed with my girl house and cow creature. Then I'll add more NPC like a shopkeeper and inn keeper and just people along with quest givers.

I wish I could help, I think the concept would be the same as has been shown here but just with the camera, however I don't know how you would do that.

Once more, can anyone help with better enemy ai?

Ok seeing as nobody anywhere seems to know how to make collision in first person I suppose I could make my game in third person. But when I did try this i seemed to collide with objects before I actually reached them so i couldnt get through doors or walk near walls. Does anybody know why?

box collision could be to blame. It isn't accurate but does the trick. Look up Intersect Object in code snippets and the like. There's tons of collision code for accuracy and sliding (such as my Waffle collision, which isn't posted nor will be cuz I don't have the time). My Waffle collision was actually loosely based off of some code someone wrote in this forum.

Andrew Neale is currently showing me some stuff about Level Editors, it's easier then I thought it would be but is still hard, would anyone else like to help me learn how to create one? And once more can anyone help with making better enemy AI? Please? Is anyone reading this thread anymore? Because I can't let it die yet, I still need to get some more stuff before I can leave this to die!

Good, so you know the enemy AI, in doug's orignal code? How would I implement it so they can cast magic and move away from attacks?

Once again:
Can anyone help me with better enemy AI that can move away from my attacks and that can cast magic?
And:
[b]I have made a final hud that has the meters in the upper right hand corner, I've got the health bar and magic bar up there fine but I can't get the XP meter up to where I need it and work unless I add a number, ahh I'm making no sense so here's the code:

(xp= 50) I need the bar to be as big as:

Playerhealth= 100

I need to have it so the XP bar starts out with nothing but as you kill more stuff it increases showing more of a green bar, repositioning this bar is always hard.

Not sure yet.
Here is a simple usage of the menu:

You can add different primitives.
I'll do some more soon because that menu code rocks.
[Edit]
Here is a slightly improved version.
Add primitives - menu,
Select object - click,
Delete objects - Delete,
Move object - 8,6,4,2,+,-

Andrew, do you think you could help with my enemy AI? AI is very hard for me and I'm still grasping the concept. I just wanted them to move away if it detects me slashing and to cast magic, I already have some magic code which you find a few pages back thanks to Tifu, and the AI is the same as Doug's original code, except there are only 25 enemies now.

If he'd finished it he wouldn't be asking for help.
I'll have a look at it.
Is it the code where you are a cube and there is a load of other primitives running around who come at you if your close enough?

Well there are 2 like that, Auras and Dougs, the one I'm talking about is Dougs which as a bunch of redspheres that attack you and you can slash back.

@L B G,
Of course it's not complete as Andrew has stated, and it won't be for a while as it will have a long story (not uber leet MMRPGness) and I'm still working on that and grapsing a knowledge of DB.

Eh Andrew, is this code that makes the enemys back off?

Or is it something else?

Thanks for helping me, they dodged exactly how I wanted it, so if you didn't come at them they could "jump" back.
