AH!

2 bugs,

If you load a .EFPS it gives an error:
"Runtime error 7008,Object does not excist at line 926."

AND if you want to place 2 the same map's in 1 level you get this:
"Runtime error 7007,Object already excists at line 597."

Also:

Good things:
-Interface
-userfriendly

Bad things:
-Camera,you cant go up or down,or place the camera back to its original state if you had loaded an object once.
-Those load error's

Good stuff,needs some improvement though.

Hmmm... That works here though I will have a look at it. Did you chose "Select Map" or just "Load" when doing this? Or did you load a efps while other objects existed? In that case, you just need to start a new level before loading. You can do this my clicking the blank paper button in the toolbar. Although I did make a feature so if you already was building a level and you loaded a new level, it would delete the current existing objects first.

Quote: "AND if you want to place 2 the same map's in 1 level you get this:
"Runtime error 7007,Object already excists at line 597."
"


That's easy to fix. But I only made you able to load a map once because I didn't thought you would have to load 2 maps twice.

That's strange! I tried downloading it, and it worked fine. I've attached the exe to this post.

Hope it works this time!

To scale a map go into the "Object Control" menu, and select the "Scale Map" button, and enter the new values

To scale an entity, just use the scaling tool in the left side of the screen.

Besides, you can now move the camera up and down when it's not focused to an object

That's really strange... I will upload it to my website then.

Here, try this download for the 16Bit demo exe

Thanks, that one worked!

I love the easy streamlined interface, everything was where I expected it to be, except the "new" button, in my opinion, should be first. The only problem is that when loading saved levels with "load", it throws up an error.

I'm very glad that you liked the interface! I will move the "new" button to the very top right away.

Quote: "The only problem is that when loading saved levels with "load", it throws up an error."


That's very strange. Doesn't happen here Does it work if you use the load button in the toolbar?

[edit]
I'm about to test Easy FPS on a second computer.
[/edit]

[edit]
Okay it also gives an error on the second computer... I'm working on a solution.
[/edit]

[Edit]

Fixed! The problem is not the software... It's the save file
If you make your own level and save/load it, it should work.

@Games 2 Live:

To get the 16Bit version of Demo 2, please first download the full download, and then download the 16Bit exe:
Demo 2 16 Bit

And then overwrite the other exe with this one.

Hope it doesn't cause you too much trouble doing it this way

[Edit]

Silly me... In next release I will just include a LUA script to change resolution from

Strange! Works fine here. I will look into this.

Importent News

Just saw that DarkPhysics is delayed to the 22 May And since I need it for the runtime part of Easy FPS, I will have to wait for it until then.

Indeed it does. But I can't use the time complaining. I will just have to use it on improving the editor, and add new features to it in the meantime There's nothing to do about it.

Update

Hi all,

Unfortunately the runtime part of Easy FPS will be delayed yet again This is due to that Dark Physics has been delayed to the 29 May. So I just have to use the extra time improving the editor some more. That leads me to the new updates the editor have been going through, and bug fixes!

Language Package support

The biggest feature right now is that you're now able to implement new language packages to the editor! And it's easy too! In the Data folder there now is a folder called "Language". In this folder you will find a lua script called "Language". That script looks like this:


Very simple... Now in this folder you also got the folder containing a language pack. Right now there is an English language package and so I've written "English" as the language used. If you had another folder called "Danish" I would just switch that variable to "Danish" In those language package folders you will find .ini files containing names for menu buttons, and you simple change those

Other Features

-Clone Object button has been added to the object view window. With this you can easely clone the current selected object This is much quicker than having to go to and load a new entity from the entity load window all the time!

-You can now show/hide the matrix

Other Changes

-The save file has now been improved much.

-Easy FPS editor is now far more stable than ever before.

-Fixed a bug that would cause the editor to crash if you tried to load new entities to a loaded level

-Fixed buggy object scripts

-A lot more bugs fixed...

-The menu catogeries has now been changed a little, so now a new menu has been added. The "Tools" menu. You can't see it on the screenshot though.

And a new screenshot!


Sorry for the delay on the runtime But atleast the editor will be very good

When will this editor update be released?:

As soon as I feel like it's ready

Cheers,

-The Nerd

Indeed

Quote: "Also,will you add a feature for melee?

Melee weapons... Hmmm... That's an interesting idea. I can't really decide that yet as the runtime part isn't started. But I'm open to ideas and have written it down But please don't take it further than fps games! Because that's what the engine is all about, creating fps games. So it will not contain features that will help you create an RPG. But since Melee attack easely can be in an fps, I've written it down, thanks for the idea.

New Feature

I just added a new feature. It's small, but quite good anyway I think. When you load a map for use to place entities on a small window will show up with the text "Loading Map. Please Wait...".

I wont,BUT in most FPS games you can have melee,so it's a quite good idea.

AND if melee is added,and good psychics,this becomes better then FPSC.

I'm not here to compete against other products really I think FPSC will be more advanced than my FPS Engine will become(But that doesn't mean that mine isn't good!)

Melee attack is a good idea indeed, so I've written it down.

As long as you've got secondary fire and weapon animations setup, there's no need to write in a melee attack function--unless you're aiming the the Halo style bash upside the head. Which would also pwn.

Here's a little new screenshot. It's a level I made in 3D World Studio loaded into Easy FPS. As I don't have much models in Easy FPS right now, I just placed some cans:


Also while I was flying around in my city level, I tought of how annoying it actually was to have those windows in the side when you just wanna fly around and look in your maps. So I'm gonna make a level review feature mode. When you enable this mode, all the windows will be hidden until you de-activate the mode again Also the "Select Map" button will be changed to be a bit more descriptive, it will be changed to "Import Map". And the "Scaling Tool" button will also be moved to the new "Tools" category.

[edit]

Map Review Mode added

Well... I think I've found a critical bug in BlueGui. Do you remember reporting the bug with the program crashing when you tried to exit the statistic window? I think it's a bug with BlueGui. So I have reported it with some example codes. Still waiting for answer If it's a bug, and a new update will be send, then the Easy FPS editor will be improved a lot!
