lol the void is nothing.. thats all there is to it. thats why its the void. it just gives you the hall of mirrors effect. unless you type in 'gl_clear 1' then it'll be a solid color

The bottom middle of the hammer editor, there is a status bar.. When you move the pointer through the 2-d views it shows the coordinates relative to the origin (duh) if you dont see it, go to view>>toolbars>>status bar. something like that. im at school right now so i cant find out for you :P

do you mean the clip brush?? because in a map that im working on right now, (and soon to be in the vault) i am using a clip brush as a func_door.. but they cant be trigger entities.

and yes, train origins are always a plus, just make sure they're in the center of the train, unless you want some funky spin operations.

yeah the clip brush doesnt render in-game its just an invisible brush that blocks player movement. either way in the hammer 3-d view, its a white nose, not skin color :glad:

in Sprites Post #180464
i know this is a huge bump, but i was messing around with sprites... and i had the same issue here.. here's the solution.

i test on the WON version of half life so i dont know if this would matter or not, but the sprite iw as looking for is the plasma.spr. so its located in Sierra/half-life/valve/sprites but i guess half life doesnt load the sprites from the valve folder, so i made a new folder in the half-life folder called sprites and i copied the sprite into there. so the new pathname is Sierra/Half-Life/Sprites/plasma.spr

works fine. and i used the hammer browser to go directly to it.. hope it helps anyone.

i hope some of my explinations helped you out. i have some screenies of some pinhole leaks i found that i coudlt figure out where they came from.. i guess HL engine cant handle that. i bet source could if you wanted tp put in the effort... maybe some nice effects with HDR off the water too :)
once again, sorry

edit

my plans were just cancelled for the night so maybe i can giev that leakfinder program a go.. i doubt i can get the other entities back though
leakfinder is neat, but its not helping anymore.. the entity is in the same spot still, yet i cant see any leak.. not even with the pointfile and gl_clear set to "1"
sigh re-starting is looking like the only remedy here.
if you want to know the main problem is where the big bridge (func_wall) intersects the cliff.

heres my last resort: making the func_wall a world brush... its going to create MASSIVE face splitting but im ready for anything at this point..

M_gargantua, the intial pieces WERE infact snapped to grid, but then some nasty off-grid carving took place. Thats my best guess.
sorry i cant help more Biax. The map i have now is useles.. blocks just everywhere sealing holes, no more entities... sorry man but i tried.

haste makes waste
save time and make your vertices on grid no matter what detail you may lose. it will help in the long run.

in Halo-esque deathmatch map Post #179640
well at first glance i immediatley noticed the enormous water texture which sticks out into the void. Just because its cut off from the void by world brushes doesnt mean its closed off from the void. part of the entity is still in it.

there's a leak

i noticed on one of your bridges, the main support structure in a func_wall. Very good that you did that to not have it destroy the surrounding rock wall with split faces but the part that goes towards the middle of the map extends past the world brush cliff

theres another leak

from this, you will learn that any entity in the void will create a leak. all you have to do is seal them off from the void with world brushes and the problem is solved.
nulling the textures do nothing because anything that isnt 'inside' the level isnt rendered anyway... which brings me to my next point.

on that same water texture that you have extending past the bottom of your map, the water texture (which isnt included in the wads you sent btw) is only on top, and the rest is a null texture.

very bad

its true that unless its a flowing texture, water will only render from the top face, BUT if you dont texture all the sides with the same water texture you will get a mixed face contents error. Because half-life renders any texture with a "!" in front of it as water even if you dont make it into a func_water. Making a water texture a func_water allows you more flexibility with the entity.. such a wave height transparency... contents (slime, lava, water) etc etc.

i will continue to look for entities and such that are in the void and ill try to seal them out. i will make an edit (or another post if someone replies) with any findings/progress.

i really like the brushwork btw
edit
found 5 or 6 cyclers in the void... the big wall of func_illusionaries were all touching the void.. made some func_walls into world brushes (i didnt feel like sealing them) this will break up the surrounding blocks into may many peices but atleast i got all the leaks out. im compiling now with fast vis and normal rad.. csg normal and bsp normal. ill post some screenies of problems i come across.
edit again
holy cow.
it took me long enough to get rid of the MAX MAP CLIPNODES error while compiling... i placed clip brushes over the bridges and over the high cliff areas near the func illusianaries. i tried to save most of the brushwork so i deleted all the entities in the map to try to find the leak. i havent found it yet but now that i have the map running i can view the pointfile in hopes of getting somewhere.

neat trick with barnicles.... in blueshift. i forget which level but theres a broken bridge with some pipes under them, thers a barnicle on the other side of the bridge, if you let it suck you up and kill it, you fall onto the other bridge and there are 2 medkits there.
