A special texture that when applied to a brush makes an invisible line to cut a VIS leaf into 2 or more parts, to control line-of-sight and reduce wpoly counts. HINT is usually used on only one face of a brush, the rest of the brush is textured SKIP.
For best effect, a hint/skip brush should be placed so that it cut's across a corner between two hallways.

Have a look at Andy's tutorial for more information.
