I've read many posts sayig levels with MDL's are better. So i've tried using MDL terrains- walls- and so on but my character model passes through many of them- falling through terrain, through solid walls-

I check the model's properties and they are not set to be passable. Right now I'm testing using the default template for the character-

I must be overlooking something? Is it because I haven't done a final build with the light and distance slider options set to max in the build options or is there some flag i need to be checking or what?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Collision takes a little more effort to get working properly with model-only levels, one of the few disadvantages. Thing is, you need to use c_move to do collision. Collision is outside my realm of knowledge so I don't know. With 18+ million polygons per second rendering for cards in 2004, that's serious power.

Thanks for the reply ulillia. In other works the default plbiped template can't be used- I need to script my own player-move code.

Well. i've been putting it off forever guess I better learn it. lol

I also have on my list of 'things to do' your tutorial which looks to be a invaluable help to me- as i would love to get away from WED level Gemometry.

The "how to make levels in MED" tutorial needs to be rewritten. It's been on my agenda for a while but MED is missing one crucial feature - being able to set a texture scale for UV map creation. It's the only thing I need (short of taking out calculator and punching in numbers for a quarter hour just to do the same thing) for this tutorial to become most effective and easy to do and so I can get going on my 3D game which hasn't been worked on at all for over a half year. It does, however, give a brief concept on what is needed.
