Hi, im trying to optimize my map with hint brushes. I was wondering, will hint brushes will cut the bsp with overlapping? For example if I have a wall with several windows on it, can i just put one big hint brush across them all which is embedded in the wall, or should i craft an individual brush for each window? It will take a loooong time to do individual brushes so im hoping the first idea is correct.

thanx in advance

One big hint brush should be fine.

But may I suggest don't make it inside the wall, make it just infront. But it's up to you.

Hint brushes do cut BSP, although its okay to over lap hint brushes with regular brushes, I would still say make individual brushes for the windows. As it speeds compile time up.
