Quote: "The first you are going to hear about the upgrade is when it (or the first public beta of it) is finished. There are too many people here with totally unrealistic expectations for us to even consider releasing any information about what is currently in development for FPSC."


And I needn't copy and paste anything else but say two words: Riker 9.
I have read the new posts and information that is being posted on the forums and I don't think TGC have abandonded us at all, as they are working on FPSC as quoted above. Also Riker 9 should be a great help. This is my opinion but I think theres a pretty bright looking future for FPSC.What do other people think?

Yeah i agree with you, and after TCG have released the fpsc update i think they should release a big model pack with lots, and i mean LOTS, of weapons and models from different epoks and different parts of the world.

I DISAGREE!

I think FPSC has an excellent future.
In fact, FPSC is the future of Independent Gaming.

Wow... 35 MB for game studio.. That tells me that you have to spend days and days of time to get a simple level playable. With FPS creator V1 I could make a game in under 15 min. that plays great first time in most cases, and blood comes out and stuff! Great sound, weapons characters, etc. , Very cool ! Can 3d game studio do that ? in under 15 minutes ?

ultraplex: whyrag is another case of shooting the mouth before investigating all the info.
you could knock a game out faster in fpsc......but it will look like all the others, im not actually trying to advertise other software,but when it was said that fpsc is the future of indie development then the person saying it must have only had contact with fpsc, because theirs a lot more out their that ( unfortunatly) is better than fpsc.

i personnally think that if 1 week was spent working with both bits of software that 3dgs would have a better result,sorry but fpsc is limited in what it can actually do.

This is total bs.

My game has 100% original artwork. Getting original characters into FPSC is tricky (you need to think - and try stuff - the horror!), but static models are easy.

Like I said, please try A6, good luck, you will need it.

ive been using a6 for about 3 months now and was one of the best buys i made.so the luck was in finding a6,bad luck though buying fpsc.
if your game has 100% original media in fpsc then yours is the first.
but i bet it plays the same too.

What is A6?

FPSC is great because currently it sets up a platform at which you can much more easily put a game together. Unfortunately what TGC has currently supplied in terms of models and scenery is very slim pickings. And the fact of it's quick release, as mentioned many times, led to hindering it's versitility of gameplay. I'm going to be taking the rest of this year learning to model and animate and make as many models/animations as i can as well as get textures. I hope to create numerous alien planet environments and styles. I'm thinking about releasing a gun pack if Bullshock II will write in all the script for me. I my self should probly learn scripting for FPSC. Do you guys know were i could begin?

so much for a free opinion.
i thought the discussion on this thread was about the future of fpsc, well im comparing it to other engines which will effect its future.but clearly is not the case....other forums allow their products to be compared to others so why not here.

Free opinion has nothing to do with disallowing competing product discussions - this forum is paid for by TGC, who sell FPSC - if they deem it then they're perfectly within their rights to ban discussions about other products. The reasons are not just commercial, 'vs' threads tend to lead to flame wars for a start.

If you want to discuss A6, GameMaker, or any other platform, go to the relevant forum and post there.

It's in the AUP that so many of you ignored when signing up.

Hmm interesting take Van B.

I would think by discussing the pros and cons of other software, TGC would be able to implement the pros and weed out the cons.

If the competition is doing something that users like - copy them, and make it better.

FPSC doesn't look all the same, the media looks similar, but game play can be extreamly different. Thicko, scripts are limited, and everyone just LOVES to use them...


@IanM, just want to clarify a few things.
Quote: "Hey Van B why don't you get your a$$ back to work and tell tgc to hurry up and fix the product in question?"

RJ, there is a reason there is a swear filter. And it is a bannable offense to continually bypass it.
Also, Van B is not associated with TGC, he infact does this on his own freewill (of course this is what some mods have told me).

@IanM,
Posts made for the purpose of putting down another forum member or their work will not be tolerated without good cause.

Sales are up!
In fact, I purchased DBPro on 2-3-2006 from the profits.
They can laugh all they want Gamz, I don't care.

Its up to you what you do with this software!
If they can't make money with this software, then I doubt they will with any other engine either.
Laugh at that.

I still believe FPSC is a great tool and will only get better! I do not believe that Riker9 will be it's future at all, I still doubt very much it will ever be released. I'm looking at TGC for further improvement. We've already been promised update(s) and even new version(s). In time I wouldn't be suprised that TGC will take care of the bugs and missing features. After all FPSC is a success and I'm sure they only want it to be more of a success and expand it.

Quote: "After becoming fustrated with FPSC and A6 Demo....I decided to learn, not click. I've just purchased A6 and go through all the work."


Good luck.... I've been a A6 user for a while and if you think FPSC has a problem with bugs.... thing again. 3D GameStudio A6 hasn't seen an update for almost a year due to a number of major bugs they can't seem to get rid of. It stopped me in finishing my project and I'm not the only one, a number of well known A6 users have dropped it due to frustration. Also A6 is very outdated and has problems with implementing the latest technology.

Imo, you're much better of with switching to DB-Pro, that one is updated regulary and has some features that A6 can only dream of. You may want to really investigate your options before getting something new.

ive not found any bugs in A6 ( yet)
conjured: so your selling buggy software too eh,not a good start.
i would also like to add that for me the comp prgrammming and game making is a hobby, ive never had any intention of making money from it,ive written software to help me pass exams and purely for fun.
what is the game youve written in fpsc so that i might try the demo.

Wyatt Earp: It's been tried for years on the DBC and then DBP forums. Even though some people are capable of having that discussion constructivly there is always ALWAYS some idiot who makes it go wrong, this is an unfortunate fact but I does explain the rule. And as we can see from this thread alone there are a few idiots about that have a good chance of ruin things. I mean if they can't respect a mod then what hope in hell do we have of them respecting a discussion. Unfortunately it just wont work.

Raymond J: You can do that, go ahead...you can sit and mod it and talk to...well yourself...and if it becomes big then hey well done...but you will no doubt have rules and expect people to keep them even if they dont agree with them. It's the same here. You have freedom...you have the freedom to go and make any site you like saying anything you like...If you want to restrict yourself to TGC then no wonder you feel trapped. It's like living in a box and complaining the world doesnt have enough room.
Also being a new or old member has nothing to do with what you can and cant say. I've been here longer than my starting date say and I still know what I cant say...If I wanted to bitch (which I don't as DBP has been great...and trust me it was far craper than FPSC when I first came out) I can go and do it elsewhere.

VanB: Ban the prat

Merranvo: Nice to see sensible and decent posts on here. What was the IanM bit about though I could find no derogatory parts of his message. I'm not just standing up for his as he's a mod, just that im confused. Have I just missunderstood your post ?

I feel bad preaching here as alot of the guys here are the decent members of the forum but to be honest if a post showing a possitive opinion can get infected with such insolence, no wonder that Mods and TGC staff stay away if they can atall help it. My view is if you can help em out. hit the report offensive post button, drop an email to a mod. Help 'em make your forum lives better.

I hope I havn't been out of line posting here. All the best.

@thicko - If you read the forum agreement you would realise you don't necessarily have the right to say what you want. Van B pointed this out.

These forums are a courtesy, not the drive-through at McGamemakers.
