I`m working on the game but for a while i have a problem.
When i try to Test de level, Fps Creator kill my processor at 100% and stay like this until i quit. I cannot make anything cause it`s work very hard and for this reason after i test de level with more and more effort if i press key "Esc" for delete de Test Level, the program die and i`m forced to get out with "Alt+Ctrl+Delete".
I put the windows XP service Pack 2 and Fps Creator again and after i load the map but the processor grow up at 100% and i cannot describe how pathetic my computer work if i am in Fps Creator.
I don`t know what can i do...
It`s not a large map what i created but a medium one like others.
Anyway, not my medium map it`s a problem cause now i made a very tiny level and i check the processor and he was 100% again no metter what i do in Fpsc.
Please, see this two pictures and give me a good opinion.

Here is the second picture with the processor.
Maybe the proccesor it`s in the end of life? Or what else can kill my proccesor in such a pethetic way?
I have Kaspersy now but before to install the new windows and Fpsc, the problem with processor was the same without an antivirus.
I request your help urgent!
With deep considerations, Frank.

Hello 18SHAME, sorry to hear about this.
If what I see is correct then I may have a solution. However if I am not correct, you maybe still have the perfect map that Lee.B and staff needs to see.


3 Questions for you. Can you go over the map level for me. And check to see if the spots I have added a red circle too in the Pic attached, do not appear in the viewing circle when you hover over it while in the editor?

And how many levels is the map, or is it just one?

Did you add a roof layer?


If the spots are roof or other flooring and you have placed them and can see them with in the Viewing Circle of the editor, then I am not sure I can help.
However this is some serious stuff right there. And a perfect time for a reply from staff here.

If the spots I point out in the attached pic are not showing with-in the Editor's Viewing circle, *only showing when viewing another area of the map. Then that may be the error you are getting.

Either way, I had hoped for some response concerning the current a past updates (v1 - v1.07), as myself does not want to sit around waiting while work can be completed. 1 more Q for you if you dont mind, what version of Fpsc are you using?

Great post.

Hello Deca and many thanks for reply such faster.
It is just one level and about what are they in your circles with red i must tell you it`s just three segments witch i forgot to remove when i changed the level but after, the problem still persist.

Hello Prince of Darkness. It`s not much but i have Gforce 6.600 FX, 512RAM, processor at 2.66 and for what i made in there level, Fps Creator must work with easy...

Deca, my friend, i was thinking to remove all characters and trigger zones from the map and do you know something? The game without they work good and the processor it`s still alive so again i asking you humble to give me an idea cause i`ve been working 4 days long to make this map and now i cannot put few characters so what the player doing without action?
I must start over and leave behind all my work and after what? Begin a map without entities but with few characters?
I don`t know what it`s wrong with my computer cause i have a new windows and a new Fps Creator installation in the same partition and i watch how massive eatch characters or trigger zone eat the processor and it`s amazing...
Like i say before, if i leave the map empty in characters, works well without any problems. What do you suggest Deca?
Maybe 512 Ram and Gforce 6.600 it`s not enough or i don`t know or i should format an partition and put there only the Fps Creator or should i cut the connection of the internet?
I`m a little upset cause takes a lot of time to create something beautiful with no-results in the end...

Thank you so much for your time Deca.
Frank.

Hi 18SHAME, thats ok.
I will first say, no matter what the specs. vast entitys and enemys will cause problems. its kinda sad not being able to add what you want to levels without good planning or even at all. However this looks to be recently looked into by tgc.

One main problem I have found, is the removal/delete factor within the editor itself.
If you dont mind me saying, since what you have mentioned the problem could be the areas you forgot to remove something.
Check out Post#7 on this link, and see if you have ever seen this occur.
http://forum.thegamecreators.com/?m=forum_view&t=119742&b=21

If you can not find any of these spots, let me know. and I'll get back to you.

EDIT: v1.07, thankyou for that information.
Did you use any custom segments or entitys in the level. Or all fpsc packs and fpsc base content?

Dude, close those other windows if you want to free up your processor.
You only have what, 4 or so other things going on?

Do you really need to be surfing the TGC forums and checking your email while you build a game?
I don't even know what those other prgrams are, but you don't need them to build an FPSC game either.
Close the other programs.

You can't multitask with minimum specs people!

@Deca
What the heck is up with yor sig?
Please, tell me that is not you in that video.
He let his 4 and 5 year old grandchildren beat him at Halo3?
Then he got mad, and took it away from them and blended it!?!?!?!
What a pathetic sore loser.
I want to know if 'poppy' will blend.

Don't worry kids, I'm sending Santa a letter asking him to give you an AK next year.
You know what to do with it. Good Luck Poppy!

I don't get it, I didn't see him post his specs before I posted. No reason to say that to me.

And as Conjured said, those specs can barely handle FPSC(I had a 6200 myself, and it would only run the game when I shutted down EVERYTHING but the required Windows procceses and FPS Creator. My proccesor at that time was 2.88Ghz Dual Core, and 2GB RAM.)

Hello again Deca!
Thank you for the informations. I read it all in hope i will learning something.
Not all de models are from the base content. I use few elements from people who work to born free models for Fps Creator.
Deca, i think my computer has a strong virus who kill my processor and a friend told me the same. Now, after i reading your last message, i have in mind to format all de partitions and start over.
If this doesn`t work then i don`t know else...

Conjured Entertainment - i doubt this is the problem but i don`t stay with Kaspersky and explorer opens but i forgot to close them when i was to give a print. I try just with Fpsc and no results.

Deca, i will try to erase all and start again. Maybe this is a solution.
Deep respect for all who lost time with me, in special for Deca who was devoted in give me the best his help.
Frank.

@18SHAME, that’s ok. I saw your post.
What the other users saying here in this post is true.
I have found myself trying to understand some errors, as I have tested this software many times. And thought it wouldn’t hurt to offer you some assistance even if it doesn’t help. As often it helps me also.

I have seen a respected user here who posted a clip on YTube, and stated he had a virus scan running while using fraps to record his level.
Yes he didn’t post his pc specs, yet having programs like IE and msn running I never found a problem. And I often test on a 4-5year old 1.6ghz chip and can get 33fps levels.
Use what ever info you like I posted. Some how I think I rocked the boat here, which I do not understand why. As I even don’t get notified about reply's to posts anymore.
Either way all the best with your problem and future projects.


@Prince Of Darkness, sorry to see that you think I mean anything negative by my post. I didn’t mean anything by it. Just saying he has posted here many time before, that’s all. I have no issue's with anyone here, Its game development for me, that’s all.
*all the best with your future projects.


@Conjured Entertainment, no this is not me, just some simple humor.
I was playing halo3 last night, and when a level booted the server locked up the clock, then it was myself onto 4. And some how I got mvp. Good game, Yet I think this guy is just having some fun and often makes comments about don’t breath the smoke, its just a pointless video, nothing more. Personally I like the effort of his set.
For you, I will remove the sig.
*all the best with your future projects.


In the end, good luck to all users here past and present.
I’ve had a great time here, I often like to see what people are making and like to offer my support and respect to anyone’s projects.
*If I missed anyone on the boards recently, all the best with your projects.
Have a good 1 people.
