Here is a technique that's made possible by the new vertex transparency feature:





If it's in C#, does that mean you need the 1.1 .NET Framework which can't be installed in win98se?

According to this Windows 98 Special Edition is supported.

Hi, I have an error like that posted by fishfood.

Direct3D D3DERR_INVALIDCALL when I open some maps, try to insert spawnpoints, colliders, sceneries etc.
I tried all; uninstall/install DirectX (i have 9.0c), install new video card drivers (S3 ProSavage).
I have also tried to download newest D3DX81AB.dll (I think this is for Directx 8.1) (D3DX92AB.dll) from "JEDI Delphi Project" but I ever recieve same error.
I searched on Google but I only found patches specified for the games that people have problems.
ah.. sorry for my English :D

off topic post scriptum: I can't use MapMakerPlus too, it returns a strange error.. "???????."

It sounds like some of you need to read the FAQ. I'll try to answer all your questions anyway.


@people getting a bad file name or number error or a path not found error: Try changing the Dir entry in the Preferences section in polyworks.ini to your Soldat directory. If you extracted PW to your desktop, try extracting it to a different location.

@Kinky noob: Make sure your colour setting is either 16-bit or 32-bit (control panel -> display -> settings tab).

@numgun: I think that happens if you try to undo after doing clear unused scenery. I should probably clear the undo history after that function is used to make sure it doesn't crash.

When I'm mapping I save every few minutes and also make backup copies of my map so I end up having several versions at different stages of completion. Even I don't trust my own program ;)

@mortal_soldier: Try Window -> Workspace -> Reset Window Locations.


Hope that helps.
I often save the working map as map01.PMS to map02.PMS. If Polyworks had a function that saves the current file as the serials when it saves, it would be convenient. The hotkey would be good too.

Umm, I guess it's a bug, but poly opacity is not saved when you make a prefab. It just reverts to 0. Might want to look into that.

I might be a complete idiot, but i cannot get any vertex it colors nor new vertexes will have its texture.
I must be doing something terribly wrong; i see nothing i draw... only the points of the sprites..

Isn't there a quick guide on youtube about this editor to demonstrate it features?

According to your palette panel (opacity textbox) you were creating compeitely transparent polygons. To create visible polygons set opacity to 100 (it will affect sceneries and brush as well). Also you can change opacity of existing polygons and sceneries by selecting them and setting desired opacity value in Properties panel.
