Post Description

A new version of FPS Creator, entitled X10 was released in late 2007. This version introduced a number of features including realistic water with refractive and reflective effects, as well as improved AI and physics. Many of their new scripts have been adapted by their other game creation engine called Dark Basic Pro. This version is only compatible with Windows Vista and a limited number of DirectX 10 graphics cards (generally from NVidia). A GeForce 8800 series card is the recommended requirement. Several other graphics cards have been tested but only the NVidia 8800GT was the most successful. Nvidia 9 series will perform well though reports from their forums indicate stability and compatibility issues. Many features have been integrated such as reflective & refractive water, bloom effects, window refraction, advanced AI allowing allies and enemies, as well as additional shaders. These though draw more inefficiency to the already underpowered engine. There have been many criticisms of the software but they have improved its performance to its predecessor (FPS Creator). FPS Creator X10 may have more features but this program has lost much of its open source nature.
