Showpoly problem!

[ToNy_W]

Alright, i don't know if i'm doing something wrong there or if it just shouldn't be done, but here's my problem:

i draw a polygon with showpoly:

showpoly(200,{player.x, player.y, player.x + 5, player.y, player.x + 5, player.y + 5, player.x, player.y + 5});

and then i try setting an image:

findimg(200).image = "image.gif";

when i use door.png or block.png it works, the image takes the size of the polygon and all, but if i try with images that i uplaoded by myself (png or gif, i've tried both), it gets all weird x-x!

Dunno, but better way to script that would be

PHP Code:

with(findimg(200)){
  polygon = {player.x, player.y, player.x + 5, player.y, player.x + 5, player.y + 5, player.x, player.y + 5};
  image = "image.gif";
}

} 


Insert dimension = 2; ?

Ok i tested it again with the method stefan used for his v4.1 release example

with (findimg(200)) {
layer = 4;
dimension = 2;
polygon = {100,100,200,100,200,200,100,200};
image = "menu_1.png";
}

the image is still messed up x-x

For anyone else that want's to know how to get them to work, you must use power of two sized images that are square. The only other requirements seem to be that the image is veiwable in Graal (suprise!) and that your polygons are quads (four sided, another suprise).
