I can't figure it out? Does not matter if shaders are on or off.
Does this in FPSC original and PB mod. As far as I can see everything in the .fpe file is right. These were purchased from the TGC store.


Thanks.

Did you flush the mapbank/testmap directory by chance? Sometimes I've had to delete the files in there when running a test, particularly if I change lighting or huds. I made a change and some items were missing, so I flushed that folder clear and re-tested and everything was ok. We mainly have had to do this in v1.16 of FPSC and now had become common practice for us to do so if changes made are not showing correctly.

Cheers

Mike

Try using appear2.fpi in the start script.

Must be a blue moon somewhere

I'm out of ideas, since Errant listed the second one I was thinking.

Cheers

Maybe it has something to do with the lighting. Try static and if you did try dynamic.

Is the character set to spawn? Did you assign a new shader to it via the effect field in the editor?

The editor pic looks like bad texture path info... Does the fpe list a _D or a _D2 map for the texture?

segments do this to if you are not using .dds textures, look in the folder there in just to see if the textures are .dds files, also use the fpsc .bin cleaner.

I get the feeling that Arteria (the maker) doesn't understand much about the FPS Creator engine.

I mean, there's a blocky, boxy pair of trainers by them in the TGC store. (Part of model pack 33)

1372 polies.

A simple tiny tennis ball prop - 224 polies.

here's a shot of the .fpe file and the corresponding files.
The fpe file does say .tga instead of .dds. but I tried .dds too and still wouldn't work.

Daniel wright 2311, yea I use that all the time, thanks.

Don't know if this will work but try making two duplicates of the fairie_tex.tga.

name one...

fairie_tex_d.tga

and the other...

fairie_tex_d2.tga

in the fpe, change to...

textured=fairie_tex_d2.tga

...and see if that changes anything. Do that with FPSC closed and load the entity fresh into a new level to test. don't forget to delete the bin/dbo.

Errant AI, thanks, but didn't help. Those models aren't in the store anymore. So maybe they found something wrong.
