Ok, I have searched briefly and I apologise if this is in the wrong place or whatever.

But basically, id like to create a nice lil multiplayer map for me and my mates. Now is there anyway to change the gun what the entity character uses?

Obviously with start markers in story mode (whatever) you choose in detail of the players. Is there anything like that scripted for multiplayer?

Adjusting, health, weapon things like that.

If anyone can point me in the right direction that'd be a huge help.

Much appreciated.

I've had the same problem. It seems you don't get the drop down box that allows you to select a weapon for the person to start with. This is because that drow down list is only provided in the player start marker, which isn't used for multiplayer games

My only solution is to choose one of the "unarmed" variations of the character, changing the texture if desired, then placing the correct starting weapon under his feet.

Well in all honesty, when creating a multiplayer arena, having the weapons drop down list added to the characters properties menu should be a must. It's something to request.

It's in the entity bank folder that the character is in. Say we're opening the .fpe of a conker. First you would open up your fps creator folder<files<entitybank<scifi<characters<and there will be a conker.fpe in there.

[edit] Glad to help.
