Maybe you didn't read the tutorial... one pixel of heightmap data correspons to one brush vertex of actual terrain. 1800x1850 pixels = 1801 brushes by 1851 brushes to a side on your terrain func_group. That comes out to 3333651 brushes. That's only a...  [Read More]

You have at least one brush with too many faces. This can happen (easily) if you go mad with the clipper trying to create complex rocks or some such. Just find brushes that have a lot of faces, and use the clipper to split them into multiple brushes,...  [Read More]
