Woah woah...hold it guys. Area_portal is for structural use only. Like the tutorial says it's for doors and windows. They basically seal off a room or another area from seeing too much geometry. Sound is a whole different ballgame. You can NEVER seal...  [Read More]

No curves will give you a different error. When you use Clip..just make a genarl clip of the area, it doesn't have to be neat. You will never notice it ingame. Say for instance you have a tree you want to clip. Make a square brush and leave it. If yo...  [Read More]

TW Verts stand for Verts...or VERTICES. There is a brush somewhere in your map that has way too many vertices. This also means it has too many faces. Radiant doesn't like that and neither does the game engine. EXAMPLE: Did you make a column out of a...  [Read More]

Open up the Hoth Siege .mapfile. You will notice above the map a small box with a portal_sky entity in it. You will also note a terrain model inside it. Just copy the whole thing and save it as a prefab under edit. Now load your Hoth map up and impor...  [Read More]

On a Gforce2 64meg card I get 28 as the lowest (without dynamic glow on) Highest will be about 80 FPS. Now considering how much game mechanics I have in here that's pretty good. At some 7000 brushes and 800 entities, this map is definately NOT boring...  [Read More]
