Just wanted to introduce myself and AoD Gaming Software.

Hi I am Squalker Dev Lead at AoD Gaming Software. We are group of gamers who are playing around with making some games ourselves I have recently picked up FPSC X10.

I have been reading the forums here now for more 3 months and have picked up a lot of info from everyone here and would like to say I find there are a lot of very helpful people here.

I would also like to let everyone know about our first game which we'll be releasing soon for Free as the game was mostly developed to get a feel for using FPSC X10.. The game well feature a developed storyline, using a custom story hud we have created and will take advantage of a lot of the X10 features available.

You can see the Official Teaser for the game on our Website.

Also if your interested in the Game you should sign up at the website to stay informed about its progress.

I have attached some early screenshots as well.





Okay thats all for now.. I hope to see you guys on our site soon and look forward to getting to know everyone in the FPSC community better.

Well looking at the trailer it is all stock stuff... I would recommend you create some custom rooms and characters... Also noticed this:

Codename: Project AoD
Engine: DirectX 10 (should say FPSX10)

http://software.aodgaming.org/page.php?2

Lets give credit to TCG for making this possible. At least list the engine the right way or don't list it at all...

Like I said.. I have only had FPSC a little while now (2 weeks)... and there will be some custom stuff in the final game not shown in the teaser video.... but it will be in the full Trailer when its released... This release is more of test of the engine for us then anything...

The walls you have created look great. How do you specify which texture is used for the walla and which one is used for the corners? Do you have it set up where FPSC puts them in like any other cornered segment or you you individually place them in yourself?

When look at the .fps files you notice there is reference to the mesh.. exp corner.x wall.x etc...

just simply edit the path to texture associated with mesh to your own textures path.... and save it with a new name ... you'll then have a new segment with different textures for walls corners etc..

If you look through the .fps files you'll see there are 17 parts.

1 mesh for floor
8 meshes for walls
8 meshes for corners

Good luck

THX

Also, how did you set up the walls to project the light from the yellow strips on them?

You just edit the area you want to be lit in the alpha channel of your specular texture file.

There are 4 texture files making up the wall texture...

examples

Tex_D.dds (Diffused)
Tex_D2.dds (copy of Diffused)
Tex_N.dds (Normal Map)
Tex_S.dds (Specular Map)

All tex files have alpha channels. The Tex_s.dds has an Alpha channel that is 50% opiate and the channel is completely black by default. If you select an of your regular image and then switch to the alpha channel the area is still selected. Once in the alpha channel you can then paint the selected area white or gray .. Changing how dark a gray it is changes how bright it well be in game. White being really bright ... charcoal gray being really dark(but still lightly lite).

Hope this helps
