Secrets?

Is there a way to add hidden objects/secret areas?

How about adding a tile that's destructible (sort of like Catacombs 3D?) so you can open up a secret area?

Make it as a 3D decoration, so that would make your idea possible.

All right, since the app only recognizes MD3 for now, I think I'll use 2D decorations for now. Thank you.

Any chance for FBX or OBJ support, or adding destructible tiles, the application?

Nope. What's the problem with MD3 btw?

Nothing per se, OBJ and FBX formats are just more widely supported.

So all further development with eFPSe is stopped?

No. Why? Adding OBJ/FBX is considered as a new feature, EFPSE is in support mode, nothing new will be added. It's actually done.

Good to know, thanks

Catacomb 3D didn't have moving tiles, only Wolf3D did that. Catacomb 3D has tiles that can be destroyed, however. Example here (not my video, but it illustrates the point):

I tried to do an illusionary wall, sort of. Md3 cube model with same texture as other walls and no collision so you can pass through it. It's very hard to get the dimensions 100% right, so there are some tiny gaps, but the real problem is that once the middle axis point of the cube is obscured by level geometry, it stops rendering altogether.

Interesting. Yeah I found a FBX -> MD3 converter online yesterday and I'll have to try it as a destructible 3D decoration at some point to see how well it works. Otherwise I could just hide items behind destructible 2D decorations. A destructible tile would've been a more elegant solution though. Nice art btw. Right now I'm trying to figure out how weapons work and figuring out the art aspects of them.

NM, it's a bust, it only converts MD3s to FBX or OBJ. I don't really want to deal with Misfit or MilkShape.

There's MD3 export plugin for Blender 2.75.

Also, I think Maverick Model 3D had that format export.

Hmm. OK. Yeah I tried Maverick Model 3D and Windows 10 did not like.

I will try Blender. Thanks.
