NEVER USE THE CLIPPING TOOL!
It causes errors / problems / leaks / bad cookies.

Umm, what? I think you mean the carve tool. The clipping tool is an amazing thing (although I prefer the vertex tool better). |

| Because the vertex tool can turn a single brush into two. |

yeah i have fixxed this now 
but when i read some tuts it says like this
"You will need two prop_dynamic entities, one for each of the following world models:
* models/props/pedestal_base_reference.mdl. Name it stand_bottom_model and set its "disableshadows" keyvalue to 1.
* models/props/pedestal_center_reference.mdl. Name it stand_top_model. "
but where to find them?

It doesn't matter how many brushes there are. The compiler only builds the 'visible' faces when you use the nodraw texture on the unneeded faces.. Like you are suppose to.

But what if you plan on moving the two newly created brushes apart from one another? What now?
PS - Using 'nodraw' on all faces which are completely covered and not entities is a waste of time and only for OCD people who should be using their OCD to detail their map, not speed up the compiling process by .01 seconds. |
