I have been using wings 3d for some time, so if you have any questions about it I am happy to answer them. When it comes to getting a model into fpsc, the process is surprisingly simple. Just follow the fpsc pipeline: http://fpsc.wikia.com/wiki/Pipeline

In regards specifically with wings 3d and fpsc:
In wings, a default "cube" which is 2x2 is the size of an fpsc room segment when exported from wings with a scale of 50. I recommend you make your model as normal, insert a new cube, then scale the model into the cube to the size you want it to be in fpsc. Then export it with a scale of 50. Don't forget to delete the cube first.

You should name the base-fpe.fpe when it is copied into the suburban folder "BlueCouch.fpe". Also, never have a space in the name of a model because it will mess up the path for the "model =". Rename the .x file to blue_couch and change the path to model = meshbank/TheMushroomGuy/suburban/Blue_Couch.x

well i ran into another problem im using a differen't model since i didn't want the blue couch i took out the spaces and used this: _ for them changed the base.fpe folder name to 3d_white_picket_fence_textured.fpe took out the capital letters also changed the text inside the fpe fold to this only showing you what i changed from last time: desc = 3d_white_picket_fence_textured.x model = meshbank/TheMushroomGuy/suburban/3d_white_picket_fence_textured.x textured = texturebank/TheMushroomGuy/suburban/3d_white_picket_fence_textured.tga i also found out the texture i used was not supported in fps so i changed that to tga the folder it is in looks like this: entities/TheMushroomGuy/suburban then this: 3d_white_picket_fence_textured.fpe and this folder: 3d_white_picket_fence_textured "the model is in x format the texture is a tga i made in paint.net i added alot more to this because my entity still does not appear in my fps creator also don't know if this is related but it is fps creatorx10 version 1.0 it has been vary frustrating for me ive changed it dozens of times to no avail

I'm afraid the tutorial I posted will not work in fpsc x10, and I am not familiar with how to make anything work in x10.

well thanks for trying kind of a let down but i will still try to get my own content into the game if that doesn't work i'll probably go to another program or not at all in the mean time i'll see if the differences in fpsx9 are good anoth to even consider buying the newer one even though im vary poor and it will be a long time i think ive seen your work before on another site its pretty good
