This part is Not A Bug - these are deliberately not supported due to the circumstances being unclear regarding the legality of those games' source code releases.

(Also, Corridor 7 is not Build.)

Misaligned textures are a common occurence in these old games. Remember: The Polymost code is virtually unchanged from its parent ports so unless the alignment issue is Raze exclusive I'll write this off as a mapping bug.

Actually, the real reason why they are not supported is that unlike the other games there's no source in a usable state for them - they all require quite a bit of work to get running.
IMO the legality of their sources is no better or worse than the reverse engineered efforts for RR, Blood and Exhumed.

That one Crapstone game whose developer leaked the entire code may be a more curious situation.

Regardless, this is a map bug, it's the same in other ports.

ok thanks for the feedback :)

it does spew some sound effect errors in the console at level 2 it seems

otherwise its exactly as I remember it ...only better :D

and pretty cool it can have shareware version and full version of the games coexist
