Hi guys !

I created a model in Blender with animations and exported it in .x format. I then used frag-motion to append my animations into one single animation. After this process I used Entity maker to create the entity and copied the files to Entities. I also created an fpi for the entity and placed it in the script folder.
My problems starts when I start the test level. My character is totally distorted. My game is also lagging when I start the game. Please help...i'm running out of patience and might just kick the PC.

No..don't do that. Lol First, is this model a character or some kind of entity?
It looks like a character. Blender is tricky getting the correct export settings just right.
Did you export the FINAL model from Fragmotion? (it's straight forward and simple)
Also, did you assign the vertices to the bones in Blender or Fragmotion?

Do you mean a "test" run or a Final build?
What version of fpsc are you using? Any mods?
My games never have bugs. They just develop random features..
Lots and lots of random features...

Hi ncmako !

Thanks again for replying. Sorry I'm replying only now ,but I had to distance myself from the PC for a while . I created the character in Blender and decreased the Vertices to +/- 2500. I then used Rigify to add a skeleton to my character. After this I parented the mesh to the skeleton. For my animations I used bvh and created three different animations in one (idle,walk and attack). I exported the character in.x format with all selections active . I loaded the character in fragmotion to check if everything is ok. All animations responded well to the mesh and the skeleton. I then loaded the character in Entity maker and created the character. When I start the test level not exported game it distorts my character. I'm kinda new to FPSC so excuse me if i'm making a stupid mistake.

Ok, you made it in Blender and "checked" it in Fragmotion, but did you "export" from Fragmotion also?
Also, not sure which "entity maker" you used, but most are for just making "static" entities.
Your best best to to use an .fpe from an existing stock character (copy to a new folder & rename)
If you study the file you'll see only a few line changes are needed (that's in the .fpe)
If you still have problems, post your .x & textures files and I'll try and fix it.
