I am new to 3dgs. I am working through the tutorials.
When asked to load a model this list is empty.
I copied some of the models into the main directory and now I can see them.
After loading when I try to set properties and actions I get blank.
How do you set the directory paths in 3dgs ver 6.4

The same way as in the other versions, an absolute path or a relative path, this last one has the advantage that you can move all the game directory and the relative paths maintains intact:

Code:

---

//*** Paths------------------------------------------------		
path "Entidades\\Mapas";
path "Entidades\\Modelos";
path "Entidades\\Sprites";
path "Entidades\\Terrains";
path "Graficos";
path "Levels";
path "Musicas";
path "Scripts";
path "Sons";
path "Texturas";
path "Interface";
path "Fonts";
path "Database";
savedir "\\GameSave";

I should have explaned better.
I opened WED and started a NEW level.
I saved the level in c:\program files\gstudio6\practice
I created a house.
When I wanted to add a model there were none listed.
Then only way to have one come up in the list was to copy it to my practice folder.
So then I can load it.
But when I try to add a behavior none are listed.
Is there some directory structure before creating a script file.
Even after I created an A6_template project I could not find any actions for
my model which happened to be originally located in c:\program files\gstudio6\models\actors\palace-guard

Your help is appreciated

Well, i assume you have your GS version updated and the latest templates installed, so after you create an A6_template project you will need to use the File -> Project Manager and add script files to your project like a camera, sky, etc.
After that, you will have actions / behaviours listed to assign to your models.

Thanks:
I think I have done all that.
Maybe it is time to give it a rest.
I will start again tomorrow.

If you want to add an object outside of your work folder, you could use Object > Load Entity...

Thanks:
I loaded an object Guard.mdl. when I build and run I can see the
guard jumping up and down.
unfortunately when I select properties I can not pick any actions. I have created the script for the level. It does not make any difference except
that I can no longer fly through the level.
Also according to instructions after updating I should go to file>project mangage and select update. There is nothing here to update so maybe that is the
problem.
