Hi guys. I'm making a game called Grayshot, and I have a question: How do I create and import custom characters into FPS Creator? There's three enemy ideas I have. One character is a giant bug; another is a mutated human; and the last is a small slug. What's the best way I can make these ideas and turn them into models for FPSC? Thanks!

Problem, Officer?

You start by getting milkshape or any 3d modeling, then you make your model, then apply a stock fpsc biped skeleton, or create your own.

@Zwarte: Alright, but how do I add the skeletons, and how do I make my own? Also, is there any way to increase/decrease the size of a model? Or are all models the same size once imported into the game? And how do i import the models themselves? Thanks.

Each modeling program is different so you add skeletons in different was, most let you build your own. the modeling program has ajustments for size, and to get your model in game you export it as a direct X. file.

You should ask a Mod to move this post to #D Chat, I'm sure you would get mre info there.

First off you are going to have to choose a modeling program. This will at least define a way you need to get started.

Download one one the starter meshes and modify it.

Depending on which modeling program you use will determine how to create the bones and rig then to you mesh.

Once you pick a model program then you can search the forum for a rigging tutorial.

Hope this helps
