I've been so busy making custom models and addins for it I never really sat down and enjoyed making maps with it until the last couple days. We've all been talking a lot about the limitations, but within the limitations there are so many possibilities!

Man it's fun as hell! You can really get some great results with what's in there and I haven't even gotten into physics yet.

You know what I noticed. Making tools to make things is more a European thing than an American one. I mean it't true with music software and game making stuff. Is this true or is it just me?

Here's from a little scifi map I just threw together.

I'm still frustrated by no dynamic entities or projectile weapons in mp. You can make great maps, but still just one kind of multiplayer game. Same S%$#, different map. Like I said before you can have a rocket arena in Quake 1 in 1996, but not here. CTF anyone? It's nice you're happy with that one kind of mp game, but not everyone else is.

I do see what you mean though, I still have a lot of fun making the couple of MP maps already. I got one going "tommy's vs zombies" where on top in the graveyard are some british soldiers, and there are some stairs and open graves falling into an underground maze where the zombies come from. Great fun.

Wasn't FPSC written in DBPro which was written in MS C using DirectX. Seems to me a lot of Europeans are using American made tools to create their tools. Is that true or just me

VC++ isn't exactly an easy to use game making tool. It's a professional programming language which requires years of experience/education to master and was designed for a more esoteric and professional crowd.

I mean like affordable easy to use game making for the masses with little programming ability kind of things. Clickteam (France), TGC (UK), 3D Game Studio & PureBasic (Germany), Blitz is from New Zealand (Yeah I know it's not Europe, but you see the pattern here --where are the American game making tools?)

I found a really great game development kit for consoles available from a California based company and it cost $120K per licence. That's 120 zero zero zero. But you could design for like PS2 and stuff.

An analog of that in music development would be the American made ProTools (made first, costs thousands, made for pros) and the Belgium Fruity Loops or UK Making Waves which cost under a hundred and are used worldwide.

It reminds me of the way Rock and Roll developed partially as American Southern Gospel and Blues music (for a more select crowd) that was reflected back to us from the UK in the form of the 60s "British Invasion" more widely accessable.

steals girlfriend and takes her off to ****.
Nuff Said.

FPSC Really becomes more powerful once you start editing segments. It is a terrible building program, (I HATE ROOMS) but when you concentrate on wall segments (Which can either allow doors but not a floor, or allow a floor but not a door) an corridors. You not only get less polys, You can get slightly faster frame rates.

Raven said that collision polys overlapping also cause errors, So to make my level even faster I am going to be turning off the collisons for the roofs, and second sides of the walls. Who knows what can be done if you take a simple concept, and make it simpler.

And my mother left me in this room. But she never came back...
The horrible walls were black, desolate, devoid of life.
A single picture bore apon those walls. A man, if you could call him that. he was contorted into a demonic body, devilish.

Enscribed on the picture was the name Dorian Grey.
