Hi there, I am making a fair size map for sniping, I have already completed a Cathedral, in the basement there will be a circular (oblong) cave structure.

2 Things I want to do:

1: How can I cut a oblong/round hole in the wall and have the cave open up into a room?
I did a work around clipping the wall about 20 times around the cave, then deleted the centre (it was messy) I cleaned it up making another cylinser to pass through the wall to be a bit larger in diameter, then added thickness, it worked.
BUT, is there a better way to achieve this?

2: I want to have a cave system all oblong/round caves, but would like to get one cave running into another to form a Y junction, can this be done, and how. I would also like to make a 4 way cross section of round tunnel/cave, how can I do this also.

Thank you in advance.

Could you not just use a patch and then manipulate the vertices to get the look you are after?

So your saying use a terrain patch as a wall? Didn't know this could be done? If this can be done, are you saying that use terrain patch, split it, then add verticies (CTRL SHIFT A) and manipulete that to make a circle. I would then thicken to amke the wall? Is there an easier way to make a round hole?
Can someone verify this pls... Thnx

I also would like to know how to make tunnels (round) merge into a Y joint or even something like a cross raod. Is this possible so as to make a network of tunnels.

Make your whole tunnel out of patches.

There is a basic 'making a tunnel' tutorial in the CoD section which might help and inspire you.
