You should either turn the pipes into func_wall's or move them 1 unit away from the wall and floor or the r_speed police will kill you. smiley

Give them a trim that is a func_wall between the pipe and the wall/floor, you know you want to smiley

And anyone who thinks the clipping brush is evil, shouldn't be mapping TBH, its a crucial mapping tool.

Nice tutorial - I haven't read through it yet but judging by the pictures it does a nice job of explaining the process.

Best tutorial on pipes I've ever read. Clip tool combined with vertex tool is my favoured technique.

yes, the one thing i forgot to mention... in the final picture each pipe was done twice to show the difference, the "left" pipe has only a sliver of itself turned into a func_wall between the wall and floor, and the "right" pipe is a complete func_wall. the only main difference i noticed were the lack of shadow effect, but other then that it really doesnt make a difference.

i agree reno -- whenever i venture into the cs mapping forums everyone complains about the clipping brush which IS vital. I use it respectively and fluently and never had any problems.

Hey sinner great tut. I'd also like to say one thing, you can turn it all into a func_wall and still have the shadow. You just compile with ZHLTools and there should be an option to set the object properties to opaque. But hey, great tut.
