What am i supposed to do now.. I have no clue on where the fix this, the manual doesnt state anything.

Also why wont FPSCx10 create the DDS textures automaticly?

the bed is 3 segments. No entities here
but the problem isnt just the Horizontal misplacement.
the problem is also the huge size..

Allthough it looks fine in editor.

For your .dds troubles use this-

For your model check to make sure the first bone you place is at coordinates x,y,z, -0 That should help...maybe

bones.. on a segment??? this is static segments, why do it need bones.
Anyways didnt help.

Do walls need bones to?

Seems its a scaling problem, and the scaling misplaces the objects.. But why does it scale it.. The size seems fine in the editor..

You don't need bones...

It looks like you're using the scale property in the fpe file to make your bed the right size. This doesn't work in X10, it interferes with instancing or something. Even though it looks ok in the editor.

Just re-export your model at the correct scale in whichever app you made it in.

Why would a bed be placed as a segment, and not as an entity? I'm not being trite, just wondering.

best course of action is to make sure in your modeling program that the proportions and position are already set to the propper placement, that way the engine doesnt have to do any work to alter its height.

Indeed, I was perplexed as well. Thats why I suggested the bone method. The situation reminded me of the sinking characters in x9.

Reason for segment:
A. Much better shadow shading, this is a horror game..
Perfect lightning cast is 35% of a good horror game.
B. Bullet holes..
C. More precision for placing dynamic objects on it.. i always has alot of problems stacking dynamics unless they are all box collision.

Modelling:
this model works fine in x9 sizewise.. Ive even imported a floor.x and wall.x keeping size from FPSCx10 to compare size.. Nothing seemed to need changing.

Textures:
i got the D2,D,S and N textures DDS ready. so shouldn be anything there.

Only thing left i think is something goes wrong when FPSCx10 created the dbo mesh file.

The bed looks good, but this really needs to be an entity if you want it to work right, and what worked in X9 doesn't always work in X10, at least not in the same internal file structure.
Also everyone here is new to the internal workings of X10 also being that it just was released, so if you run into a issue that no one else here on the forum has solved yet you're probable going to have to solve it yourself or wait until someone else on the forums solves it and is nice enough to share the answer with you hope this helps.


Best
