Yes. Like many other new mappers, i probably have bitten off more than i can chew, and i think it has shown. I made a decent map of my high school (very original i know) but i seem to lag when i play it. A lot. My eyes actually started to hurt while i was playing it...
On another note, i would be happy to submit my .bsp if i knew where to put it, my vis takes roughly.... 5-6 minutes.. roughly.. and im using zoners compile tools. Only because i have been looking at the tutorials and forums for quite some time now. I cant find the solution anywhere.. so Please give me a hand.
