Hi guys,

If you have downloaded Blender and looked for gaming templates, you have probably heard of Social's FPS Template. Social's template is first person shooter game basic setup. You have your character, movement animations, shooting animations, a starting room with some crates in it, and an extra magazine for your gun.

The starting template was good, but I have improved on the code, as well as added some extra features, such as HP for the crates, an "enemy" that walks around the room, and the path nodes that direct the enemy. I've also done some more little things, but it's not really worth mentioning everything.

On top of that, josipk went over the code and updated it to use the latest version of python code, as well as fixed a bug I was having where twice as much HP was being taken away as I wanted, and my "enemy" was skipping path nodes.

I had messaged Social to ask him if he was keeping this template updated, but he had explained that he was no longer a member on the site I found his template at, and that he had other projects he was working on and was not really messing with this template anymore. So I decided to post the updated template here in order to give everyone a chance to download it, as it is a really good template to start your FPS game with.

You can download the updated template at:

EDIT: I've updated the "enemy" to be a soldier, though he is not animated. The texture is not showing up at rendering time, but I'll fix that and probably animate the soldier as well. Anyway, this download is the current version.
