Hi


will there be a mission editor in FPSC?
ETC : First you need to find a weapon when you have found the weapon a door will open?

ETC: or maybe you need to pick up an object before you can complete?

a big problem in The 3d gamemaker was that you could only select enemys and you own gun one time and then you should use it all the way though the game.
So will you be able to have as much differens enemys and weapons as you like in FPSC?

will you be able to have an intro movie before it goes to the menu?

and the last question.

will you be able to use you own textures on the walls and that kind of stuff?

If you watch the video with Lee's interview (see recent newsletter) - he states that practically everything is script based - so there's nothing stopping you from having a mission description, or even your own menu system. When you collect an item, you could run a script to do whatever you like.

Not sure about the video though, it's certainly doable - but it depends if Lee has coded it.

There are only a certain number of weapons available in FPSC, but you can have as many of them as you like in one level. The same applies to enemies, you click and place each enemy, and they can be different types.

FPSC allows you to pick mission objectives I believe. I think what will happen is that a standard set will be provided and hopefully you can then add your own.

i've seen this stated also, but on the video i think i remember lee saying that it would be unlimted on the types and amount of entites you can import to the game. If that is so, could you just model your own gun with firing and reloading animations attached, and glue or paste the entite to your charcter model or position and use the script to control the animations doing the same with a hidden bullet entite? Guess it would depend on the scripting and how much control we will have over these entites and we really won't know it's full capabilites till it's released.

Yes, you can set misson objective by just stating on each object if it is an objective or not. For example, you could set each enemy to "Is an objective" and create a zone which is also "Is an objective". You will therefore have to kill all the enemies and reach the end zone. Simple really!

As well as setting objects/enemies to be objectives you can also create trigger zones. So as Rick said, simply walking into the right area could trigger the end of level (or, player death.. depending on what they walk into!)
