Hi guys,

I'm making a model of a building and at the moment I have one large rectanglar brush for the floor. The building isn't rectangular so there are parts of the floor brush jutting out from the building into the void (there aren't any leaks though). Does this result in any extra rendering? Would I be better off making the floor out of several smaller brushes which fit the base of the building exactly?

Thanks!

It'd be better just to VM the one brush into an appropriate shape, actually. Read the VM tutorials if you don't know how to.

Thats only work if the base of the building has four points though isn't it? Or can you have a brush with more than 8 vertices?

Yes, you can; select a face (the yellow dots) in VM mode and press Shift+F. If not that, it's Ctrl+F, but I think it's Shift.

He said leaks, so I think he meant model in a general way rather than a technical one.

You cannot do that if you have a concave polygon. Hammer dosn't like it and will treat it invalid. :cyclops:
