Have you used CSG subtract? That has the potential to increase your brush count if you're not careful. For map info just press M....  [Read More]

Possibly to do with having too many brushes? That's a stab anyway as I've never encountered this error before tbh. What is your map brush count anyway?...  [Read More]

1. Water doesn't turn sabers off 2. No 3. No doubt very little but I'm not a SW film fan. 4. The idea is to make it as wide as a player (so 32x32) and as high as you want them to climb. Place it near a ladder texture so it appears like they're climbi...  [Read More]

Yes, brushes work to the grid (unless you turn it off - which is not a good idea for brush work). Patch meshes are those things you can drag into any shape you like but start of as a 2d flat plane. One you make one, you can hit V to drag parts of th...  [Read More]

Brushes want to snap to the grid by default. You can turn this off however you can end up with leaks etc. If you want brushes rotated, best thing to do is use a set of patch meshes and rotate those. That way you'll know to not even attempt to use the...  [Read More]

Well you can't really make a brush appear like how you intend. And if you transport people without modifying the efx files you'll get the green effect on top of any effect you make. In the end the key is in efx files as they give you the kind of con...  [Read More]

Look at effects/env/beam.efx effects/env/beam_bolts.efx effects/env/beam_lights.efx effects/mp/spawn.efx Those files are used to show the big green beam. Modifying those will modify how the effect works, you'll probably have to modify the shaders a...  [Read More]

I'd presume it was an efx file that actually determines how the shader is applied. It's the same as the spawn effect. My question back to you is why do you want a Stargate SG-1 transport effect, what you makin? SG = curiosity....  [Read More]

Why is everyone saying all this when all you have to do is block vis? It's usually a cause of making one hint brush that will benefit FPS...most of the other ideas so far will just leave the room being drawn but "maybe" make it so you can't...  [Read More]

Going back to what I said, this is merely an easy to fix vis issue...The game draws the sky behind everything it can see according to the vis data. Make those 2 areas visually separate and the skybox will no longer have that problem....  [Read More]

Do a BSP -meta only Then go to the plugin menu, Portal Viewer->Load Portals and check the Show 2D option. You'll get blue lines on your 2D Window. Take a screenshot of that - by the look of the layout so far it probably is a vis issue which can be...  [Read More]

Is there a way to walk around where you've built the skybox? If you can see behind a skybox and those 2 areas are connected, that's why. Unless your vis data is made to totally seperate the two areas, the skybox will be drawn behind both...the questi...  [Read More]

You can use icarus to do this, would be something along the lines of making a func_usable and placing two ref_tags in your map. The ref_tag's need targetname's like "moverpos1" and "moverpos2" and the func_usable needs a key of sc...  [Read More]
