With the new Hammer

I feel you rushed this slightly and didn't proof read, fix or even consult anyone else on, which is a shame. Now that you've got quite a few comments I feel you could re-make this tut and hit each area perfectly. Although, only really helpful for those that have never used hammer 3.5, and I feel you need to concentrate on pointfiles and finding leaks without the pointfile, as we all know pointfiles in 3.5 were sometimes dodgy, although I've had no new bad experience with Hammer 4, its a nice area to touch on though.
Note: This may not make sense, wrote early morning in tiredness.

Yeah, this was a straight-forward and much-needed tutorial. Good job, dooder!

These other people seem like they know what they're talking about/doing already, so why read a tutorial like this for beginners like me? Also, if overlapping brushes can have repurcusions, then.. what repurcusions? (explain, please) because I'm just trying to fix up a map to make it work, and this tutorial helped me solve the problem. The brushes appeared to line up fine, so I made them overlap, and the leak went away.

This tutorial is great for what it is. Short, sweet, to the point, and with some pictorial examples of some different types of leaks you can get.

Thanks

I've just updated the tutorial slightly, and fixed some spelling mistakes. Decent resource, though.

Definately a decent recourse, especially to those completely new to leaks.

It would be good to mention that VIS should be read upon, a link to a description wouldn't go amis.
