Because a lot of you guys helped me out we free models and stuff, i thought it would be nice to do something back. I've taken time to create a desert(-like) terrain that is ready for use in FPSC, after you've placed it in the entitybank. Of course it's free to use and alter in anyway you like, and you don't need to credit me or anything. I understand that anyone can make this, but I hope you guys appreciate it anyway. Below is a screenshot, and the terrain is attached to this post. You need Winrar to unzip the file, go to www.rarlabs.com if you dont have it. Enjoy

May I ask how you got a terrain into the program? I thought it couldn't support terrains..

Very nice Gizmogaga!

How do insert enemies onto the terrain? I tried with couple of enemies and they fell through.

You could try making the terrain dynamic instead of static. I'm also from Finland!

why would you want movable terrain?

and what did you make the terrain in? 3DWS?

The problem with the enemies falling through is the largeness of the model uses. As soon as a model get's over a certain size, FPSC starts to miscalculate the bounderies. This can only be solved by either scaling down the model or breaking it up in smaller parts. That's what I've done with my terrains and enemies will not fall/walk through them at all.

When making such a large scale model dynamic you will see other problems arise. Because of the collision error, the whole terrain may fall through the floor completely and dissapear.

FPSC wasn't created with large models, like landscapes, in mind. You just need to find a way around the limits and it works fine.

While such terrains may look cool, and I really like this one, they're not unfortunally really useable in a game unless you do some work to prevent the charaters from reaching the terrain.

Bored of indoor? Add outdoor to your FPSC games!

Has any one tried putting their characters so they hover above the landscape in FPSC, so they drop onto the terrain? I'd try myself but I'm downloading to many things at this moment in time.

Yes, I did. They fall down and still drop through or even completely dissapear into the terrain.

It's kind of funny though. Walk past a terrain and suddenly a character walks out of it.

Another problem with terrains like these, is even worse.

Enemies can see through the terrain, while you can't. Once they've seen you, they'll start shooting and yes they shoot through the terrain also.

Making doing landscapes this way quite useless, imo. Breaking the terrain up in smaller parts is much much better and works as supposed to work.
