I've noticed the same thing as well. It appears that everything is sized correctly to those characters, so you'd need to find a way to "lower" the HUD perhaps?

Change the character's scale in their .fpe.

By default, the modern day characters are 100% and really tall and the scifi and ww2 people are 80% and tiny. Setting to 90% works out pretty well for me as far as making them seem a realistic height.

I find the same - setting characters to a 90% scale is good.

If you installed in the default place, the path is like:

C:\Program Files\The Game Creators\FPS Creator\Files\entitybank\scifi\characters

(The important parts are in bold)

Find the .FPE file of the character you want to scale and open it in a text editor.

where it says:



Change the value of scale to 90 (for 90%) or whatever you want. I haven't tried it but you can probabily set that value higher than 100 if you want really big enemies but the translation (movement) might look wierd.

Good luck!

I've made the scale 500 before. It messes up bullet collision tsomehow, so you can't shoot them with normal guns. You can, however, kill them with bazooka's and grenades.

Watch out, this bunny bites...
