Hi. I am new to computers and FPS Creator. I have noticed the scripts are FPI format. I do not know how to use my own scripts, very confused about it. Also, how do I use the sky banks??? I am working on a World War II type of game, nad I believe a Sky would help. Thank you in advance for all the help, FPS Creator rocks!!!

Welcome to the forums!

To use your own scripts, you first have to learn how to write in the FPI language. You can learn this by reading the FPSC Official Community Guide by nickydude. Here's the link:

To change the skybox, open FPS Creator, then click "File," then "Build Game." Once you've opened up that window, navigate to the "Level Settings" tab. On the line that reads "Global Script," click "Edit." Another box should pop up. In this box, near the top, look for the option "Sky." Click on the box with three dots on this line, and select any sky from the folders. To preview this, select a sky and click "Open." At the bottom of the box, select "Preview" and you'll see a rendering of your skybox.

Good luck, and have fun with FPSC.

The so called FPI format can be opened with Notepad with no problem.
It's just plain text stringed together in a logical way.

Each row has a condition(one or more separated with commas) and an action (could be more than one as well,same separation rule as conditions goes here).The conditions are wrapped around with colons at the start and end ( : )

Example - :plrdistwithin=100,plrhealthless=50:plraddhealth=50
First 2 are conditions checking if the player is within 100 units(1 segment) in radius and if his health is bellow 50.Then comes an action if the said conditions return true.That action is to give the player 50 extra health points.

To use scripts you have to apply them to objects (entities - must be dynamic,not static) by right clicking on them and selecting the appropriate script in their Start,Main,Destroy fields.
