  • Erdan Worlds effects presets not showing

    The MAP BORDER is a bit earlier so you can intentionally have things sticking out over it, like the mountains in one of the example maps. It is just part of the intention with the style.

  • A gallery question

    No, you can't add hyperlinks in the gallery.

    While not exactly the same, you can add all related maps to the same gallery album. When you click a map in a gallery album to view it, you can use the arrows in the top right corner of the viewer to go between all the maps in that album.

  • How to select items on a sheet?

    Unfortunately, there is no command to directly select entities on a given sheet. One workaround is to hide all other sheets (There is a checkbox for that in the sheets & effects dialog)

  • rotate polys using command line only

    The ROT command will do that, it will allow you to rotate any kind of entity.

    The Sequence of the command is basically

    • ROT
    • Select entities
    • Pick center point for rotation. Can be clicked with a mouse, or enter coordinates at command line
    • Set rotation angle. Can be selected by moving the mouse or type the angle in at the command line

    One of the nice things with this command is that if you keep your mouse pointer far away from the object when rotating, it is easier to have control of the rotation because you must move your mouse farther to achieve the same amount of rotation as when it is closer, making it less sensible to accidental movements. You can also observe the angle in the top left of the status bar while you move your mouse, so you can move the mouse to get an idea of the value you want, and then just type in the desired value in the end instead of trying to click precisely.

  • Menus missing

    I've never seen errors happen before when running the cc3menuconfig program, but there are some interesting observations there.

    First of all, the instructions, which are visible along with the errors clearly indicate that all menu files be processed (*.mnu), but as seen from the errors, only a selection of the menu files generate errors (AAT, Per, CA, dioramas, dungeon), while others that I know for certain you would have (like fcw32 and city). I assume these are processed without errors since they don't appear.

    Now, errors on some files and not others tells that there are most likely something weird going on with your install. I could think of a few possible things, one being that the file system permissions on those files are off, simply not allowing you to modify them. The other is that those files might be corrupt in some way.

    File system permissions should normally be set by the CC3+ installer/updater, but it is worth having a check. Try opening up AAT.mnu in notepad (making sure to NOT use the "run as administrator" option. Can you open it at all? Do it look like a menu file (i.e is the contents similar to fcw32.mnu). Make a small minor change in the file like simply editng the spelling of "right" on the first line and try to save the file. Are you allowed to simply save it, or do notepad pop up the save as dialog even if you tried a standard save?
