Compile it only or don't save after compile.

Make sure you haven't messed up the polygon types, and in Map Maker you should first compile it and then save it.

If that fails, get Soldat Polyworks instead. Might take a little while to get used to, but it is way better than Map Maker.

lol, so does it work now?

If mere impatience is your problem, use Soldat PolyWorks as Toumaz suggested, even just for compiling; it can compile humongous maps in less than 5 seconds flat ;)

Or an other possibility why you fall through polys, could be, that you just set the polytyp on "doesn't collide"...so be sure that you set the typ of the polygons on "normal" or "only player collide"...

As Albeck suggested, did you check your polygon types so that they collide with soldaten?

In polyworks, Compile also means save.  If you just save it, then you will fall through.  "Compiled" files save in your /Soldat/Maps folder while clicking just "Save" will save in the /Polyworks/Maps folder.
