charector select

I have a game almost finished. I edited the realityfactory.ini file, and set UseCharSelect=false, now the scale and rotation of my player is not right, and if I change them in the charector.ini it doesnt change anything. As long as UseCharSelect=true everything is fine. What am I doing wrong????

Seems this may be a bug, although Ive seen it work in other demo's. I tried rebuilding my actor (modified virgil) in milkshape, re-scaling and changing the rotation, which fixed the problem in the starting level. BUT! When i changed to next level the actor rotation and scale was wrong again. If it is a bug any possible workarounds?

This is not a bug. The character.ini file is only used if more than 1 player actors are needed. Otherwise scale and rotation are determined by the PlayerSetup entity.

Well for what ever reason, changing player rotation and scale in the playersetup doest work either as long as UseCharSelect is set to false in the realityfactory.ini. I thought it might be my modified virgil actor so I used the original virgil with the same result. So if no bug then guess I have to keep digging.

Solved the problem by deleting both the playersetup and playerstart entities then putting new entities back in the game. I have no idea why this would correct the problem, but it worked.

It seems that you have messed the ActorRotation column :).
