r_speeds

I know its not much of a pic but objects are beeing drawed from behind a door when i cant even see them, would it fix these high r_speeds if the door was thicker [ the door is just a solid ].

Help apreciated.<!-- ZoneLabs Popup Blocking Insertion -->

[edit] this is what is behind the door :

sigh

Is the door a normal solid, or is it something like a func_door? If it's a solid entity then it will not block visibility.

a door,a thousand miles thick, would not help..

assuming its a func_door.

you will need to alter the architecture, so world brushes block the view, either from one side, or both..

[edit] mike beat me to it :biggrin:

<!-- ZoneLabs Popup Blocking Insertion -->OK thanx for the help, i will get back to you later after ive altered and compiled.

i belive zhlt has sum tools for this but you migt need to make a corner not sure tho

Er......what?

I'm going to assume he is referring to hint brushes - people who don't know what they do often seem to think of them as some sort of definate fix.

<!-- ZoneLabs Popup Blocking Insertion -->I've heard of hint brushes, but never used them, Oh btw thanx to gollum and orph, its fixed! But still needs some fine tweaking,

Somewhat like the witch-doctor or shaman of old :biggrin:

heh, I never bothered to learn how to use them. but I wish I had. CoD calls them portals afaik & they are EXTREMELY important :/

HINT isn't a fix all, it may help in one or two spots sparingly, but considerate mapping is your best choice. This won't solve a 1,500 r_speed map especially if it's just plain open. Don't rely on HINT brushes. A good combination of NULL and sound mapping techniques is what's going to keep your mapping within limits.
