When I put charters in my level they just walk in place(coming towards player, but in place). I have tried to move them up or down just encase they were to close to ground. I have not change any of the settings for the characters.
Any ideas?






Love the program. FPS Creator 1.09

What type of floor segment are you using? I've heard that this happens with certain floor segments and gantries, for whatever reason. Try them on a different segment for troubleshooting purposes...if they work on other floor segments then you'll know which ones to avoid.

I've fixed a few segments by getting my hands dirty, changing the y offset value in the .FPS file to -51 works in some cases.

Some characters seem to dislike it when the segment pieces are set as overlays instead of rooms. So, if the segments you're using are indicated by an O-icon when painting them onto the level, that might be the problem. Otherwise, I'd also suggest the workaround bond mentioned; lower the segments Y-offset to -51. Floors are usually set to -50.
Hope that helps.

Thanks.
I am using the DTI-LSCape, I figured it out(I think), I checked automatic floor and it seems to work on level 0. Have not tried it on any other level, but I plan too.


Also, I have the Model Pack 18 and am having 2 problems with characters.
1.Dwarf character spawns above ground(image attached) and stays there until player gets close then drops to ground. Character is set on ground in map editor.

2.Getting fantasy characters to follow way points.
I have read manual and tried using the pace.fpi but nothing happens.
