Is it allright to cut a VERY complex object out of the map for compiling-speed purposes (you know, adding new stuff without wait for 2 hours for the map to compile) and to paste it it the final compiling archive?.
Regards.
Trying to earn some compiling time...

Yes, you shall use "Cordon Bounds" go to VHE Help- User's guide- Toolbars- Map Operations and go down to "Toggle Cordon State, Edit Cordon Bounds" and read about it.
And when you save it use a new name for it, so you don't write over your old bsp.file with the whole map.

Also, don't CUT your complex object out. Just select it and click View->Hide Selected Objects. Your thingy will be put in a VisGroup and then hidden. Now when you compile just check the box "Run with visible objects only" When you want your thingy back, unhide it (View->Show Hidden Objects), and recompile.
P.S. What's a VisGroup? Click Help->Help Topics->User's Guide->Grouping and VisGrouping

visgroups are always fun, save a hell of a lot in compile time for me

Thanks ;)... Making a big thing at the beggining of a map is a hell of waiting for compile when you add new things.
