Wolf_ released a new version of his SCREEN 2 & 4 editor called Polka. Changes in this release:

  • Block functions: Copy, Delete and Convert to 'use'
  • FC/BC swap-button
  • SME cursors (for rapid editing)
  • Copy/Paste FC+BC colors
  • Default directories

Polka is a great tool for people who would like to develop MSX1 games, but is especially aimed to be used in combination with Vscreen. The combination of these two tools allows you to create great looking, smooth-scrolling platform games for MSX2.

BTW, The help file coming with the application doesn't match the version. At least the interface doesn't look the same.

Since there are many buttons, wouldn't it be possible to have little "hint" text when the cursor is on a button ? I think that would help, at least for getting used to the interface in the first place...
