I still have got this error, when i open my map, and then i press "fullscreen":

"Run-time error '9':
Subscript out of range"

I have'nt got this problem in older version (1.4.0.7)

That's probably because your map has sceneries...
As you can see in the todo list it will be fixed in the next update.

Advanced PW blending

Old good "Blend polys" (actually i think it should be returned to PW):

POLYGON
SRC: SRCALPHA
DEST: ONE

Only transparent polys are visible:

I think a cool feature would be an overview option, with a click it could take a shot of the full map in 100% zoom and save it to the clipboard or a file. Just a thought, thanks for the work you're all doing here! ^^

First of all I have to say it's really good that someone are continuing the work on updating Polyworks and you're doing a great job Fryer!

Also, I see that VirtualTT has a different skin on his polyworks. If he wants to share it could be added as a choseable skin together with the default, is that a good idea?
I'm assuming it is self-made, I don't know if it's allready a skin.

Yeah! finally, hurray for you fryer I hope there will come new versions

I have a bug (previous versions had it too): when I enable points, if I zoom, the points becomes horizontal lines across the screen, and if I zoom more, I only can see a lot of lines.

any fixes for this?

Can I suggest something? When you have a group is selected, you should be able to mess with darkness/hue/saturation settings for the group. Say you had a map that was too dark, you should be able to select everything and add a brightness level to each vertex that would cause it to become brighter while keeping the shading intact.

Why isn't this sticky yet? =\

Making selected polys darker: set color mode to multiply and fill the polys with gray (the more dark the gray color is, the darker the polys become).

Making selected polys lighter:
1. set color mode to difference and fill the polys with white.
2. set color mode to multiply and fill the polys with gray (darker = lighter).
3. same as step 1.

So.. making them lighter and darker is possible allready.
Adding "more coloring options" to the todo list anyways

RatBoy: it is... :>

What about a scenery gallery?

I was thinking this the other day, most level editors have browsers for the props, like textures and models, what about making a scenery browser that shows the sceneries one by one and let's you choose based on the display of the scn and not on the name of it.

News: Soldat PolyWorks SVN now hosted by Shoozza - svn://shoozza.de/polyworks
That means free access to the latest source code!

If you made a change and want it in the next PW version, just send me the changed files and I'll update them.
(Look at the todo list for some inspiration...)

VirtualTT · « **Reply #52 on:** July 22, 2009, 10:11:20 am »

new PMS and PFB icons

Fryer · « **Reply #53 on:** July 23, 2009, 07:16:41 am »

New update - v1.5.0.4

Changes:
- changed how gif files are loaded
- fixed undo selection
- fixed saving of light and sketch display options
- fixed selection rectangle bug
- fixed command line argument bugs
- associate pms files with polyworks on installation
- icons for pms and pfb files (Created by VirtualTT)
- more settings in preferences

Also, from friday + one week I'll not be here so no updating of PW then

Edit: There is some bug when you resize the window while having a map loaded that includes missing scenery and/or a missing texture... No time to fix it now, you just gotta live with it for a week

Feature request: sort automatically all .gif files in a own automated list called something like animations

Snow · « **Reply #55 on:** August 05, 2009, 12:11:33 pm »

I have 2 odd feature requests:
- lockable elements: textures, scenery, poly's, etc. Same as locking a layer in a photo editing program.
- map outliner: a feature that would outline the surface edges of a map (poly's only). Reason: I like putting in many hours of play testing a design. I could build a rough and dirty map, constantly change it, testing out the terrain. Once I have a final terrain design, the feature would create an outline of it. Then using that outline as an exact reference, I could build the final map within the confines. Yes, I know you can use the sketch tool to trace, or build the new map right over top of the old one (then delete the poly's) or even an actual size pic of the old map, but this way would be beneficial, especially to map makers who put out lots of maps.

If the above is possible. If the trace feature is too complex to put in, well, we can still use the sketch tool, or make an outline of the test map in a photo editing program and then simply use a pic of that outline as reference.

Hows it going? Some programmers should do some of that stuff on the to-do list, and help good ole Fryer out! =)

How do I add it?

And, is it possible to sort up sceneries threw poylworks or do I have to do it manually?

F4||3N · « **Reply #59 on:** August 17, 2009, 06:25:06 am »

Different folders and drop down menus for sceneries.
Like In Use and Master List and Defaults or whatever....

like, trees; grass; background; sky stuff;

maybe even by diff gametypes.
cs; tw; etc..
