Any big displacements haning around? Say, one with the DIRTFLOOR005B material applied to it?

 

[corrupted-soul]

thats must be the ground in my map. but i cant remove that, i really need it. are there any way to fix it without removing it???

 

[corrupted-soul]

i have maked it smaller but its still to large. how are you supposed to do then. or is just my hammer editor ****ed up or something.?

 

[Unarmed]

Take your big and not correct displacement and destroy it. You now get the original brush. Use the clip tool to cut that brush up into several pieces and make a displacement out of them one by one.

Hey that's a great idea. If you're mapping for Half Life 1.

Try and remake those displacements but don't fvck them up. Remember that displacement maps don't block vis, so you'll need a world brush underneath that displacement to seal the map.

Read a tutorial on displacements so you understand their limitations. Then remake your displacements as Pesmerga describes.

You have displacements in HL1 :O

Also, the log contains no leaks so I think the brushes underneath the displacements is not the problem at hand.

Adn the only way to get out of too big displacements is smaller displacements. I doubt they were messed at all. Just big.

PruneNodes...

What? PruneNodes? lost_feteus?

This could so easily be the retarded typings of a small child.

 

[Unarmed]

Results 1 - 10 of about 3,420 for pruneNodes

Google finds that many results for pruneNodes, all realted to compile logs... I don't knwow what it actualy does but its fairly common.

 

[corrupted-soul]

thanks for the help everyone. it works now.But "KineticAestheti", what do you mean with the "this could so easily be the retardet typing of a small child?"
