So Im working on this map and when i made the roof it started to be complicated and I was forced to overlap the brushes. So My Question is: Overlapping brushes is that a serious crime? edited on Feb. 29, 2008 02:11 pm by kondichael

No biggy unless they both have a showing surface area on the same plane. (this will cause a z-fight in the textures) otherwise..it happens all the time.

Just watch out for the red layer, if you don't have that error then you should be alright.

urgh, messy It's a good idea to keep your buildings at 90 degrees, or at most 45...it can get very buggy at other angles, and you can't edit them as well later.

rakekniven , I think your mention of z-fights are describing the problem I've posted in another thread. I have a fence that has another fence of the same texture behind it and in-game and in testing you can see thru the one in the forefront to the one behind it. I solved that shifting the one in the forefront to 45 degrees but now I have some glass from a car "bleeding" thru some of the fence. Anyway, that's another topic. Sorry to get off-topic. I've not had a problem with brushes intersecting except for appearances. I've had to run around the outside of my skybox pushing brushes back into the box. They may or may not have caused compiling issues or at least some slowness. I've heard brushes intersecting the skybox can let light bleed thru. Is that true?
