How would I go about putting a multi-textured map made with CShop into FPSC? I'm a little confused about how to get multiple textures to appear on an object. If my map is an entity will everything still work properly (ex. collision, physics, and stuff)? Thanks for your help.

You need to export your map as a .x file and use it as an entity in FPSC. You can get multi-textured .x models in FPSC, there's been a lot of discussion on this in the chat section, look for posts on 3d World studio / Cartography Shop there.

But even if you mamage to do so, you will encounter one huge problem.... collision detection. You map will be to large to work properly, FPSC cannot calculate the collision on larger entities.

I agree with Ben. The latest Model of the Month I did, even though it's small, was complex enough to cause problems with this engine's collision detection. I suppose it would depend largely on how complex yours was to be. Better check on the threads that Ben suggested for a more definitive answer.

Also, Dave (Reality Forgotten) has written a tutorial on getting CShop (and 3DWS) buildings/levels into FPSC. You can find it here.

Thanks for the help Ben and Keith. Why can FPSC handle segment collision fine but not entity collision, even if the entity is static and part of level geometry?

Here's a map I made in Cartography Shop. The collision is very buggy in FPSC. If you jump it screws up the collision completely.

I'm not sure about the collision in FPSC (it's problems, I mean); but I suspect that is why the construction of levels is segment based. Could be the base-engine they chose to use. I'm kind of wondering if Dimonxil's team (spelling?) is having the same collision difficulties with their scens they are building, or if they found a way around it.
