How can IW expect us to do anything, when they can't even make the prefabs (which everyone implies are there to teach us how to make things) right?

I mean my map was great, not one single dupe plane, till I added their crap into it, I mean come on, you can't even make windows that work right?

Portals wont work with their crap windows, the buildings are a mess.

So I removed their crap windows, and now, everytime I slice a brush, I end up with dupe planes, all I did was cut the damn thing, snapped to the grid, and suddenly, it is dupe planed. I didn't move/grow or shrink any brush parts, just cut them, now I have dupe planes everywhere.

And this "portal is not at a BSP split etc etc is going to push me over the edge, I cut out a hole in a caulk brush, and instead of deleting it, I turned the window hole into portal no draw, added 1 side portal, and I get the stupid bsp split error, it is 100% surrounded by the caulk frame around the window....WTF, Also, some of the BS BSP split errors went away, when I made the portal face on the inside of the building instead of outside? WTF is going on??????

Sorry about the attitude, but this is IW going too damn far.
Please Help, before I go POSTAL.

Sorry, must have hit submit 2 times. My apologies

No appologies needed, just try and stay away from double posting.....


Cheers

im kinda a noob but (I dunno) would it give you dupe plains because if you have split pieces that are off grid, with snap to grid on might that affect it?

one hint dont use shitty prefabs just look at them and build your own so much less hassle mate..


take care

To the best of my knowledge, the IW prefabs are all made from detailed brushes, so that might be why your portals are not working.
