is it a scenery? or ploygons?

if is a scenery, you just make it appear front and add polygon behind.

if is a ploygon, you have to change that setting of the ploygon

Well, first make polygons in the shape of the bridge walkway, making sure they are set to "behind eberything", and then put scenery in front of the polygons. Remember, scenery is just a bitmap file, and does not affect the physical properties of the map at all-it's just there for show.

hum.. i see-- it's just that i do not know where i can set the damned poligon to be behind everything o.O the only place i see "behind everything" is in "Scenery" section. is it there?

First place your scenery with the setting "on top of everything" and then place normal polygons. They will auto-magic-ally be behind the scenery.

You could also place the polygons first and then place the scenery over it.
Just try it.
Scenery "on top of everything" and normal polygons.

1.make normal poly's in the shape of a bridge
2.make bridge scenery in front of everything overtop of the poly bridge. simple as that

yes. you cant make a poly behind all or infront of all. only sceneries can be changed.

I just made my first brigde tooo... Made many maps before sooo... It was obivius.
Btw make the polygons under the brigde "only players collide" Then you can shot flying kiddies under it.

I would have said something, but your avatar pretty much sums it up.
