Big Sized Prerequisite entity Causing Engine hunk overflow

[Macanick]

for some reason, my giant prerequisite entities on my map causing engine hunk overflow and crash my game

it only happens when compile with vrad, there's no crash when I compile without them

What's a "prerequisite entity"?

Brushes above the size of 4096x4096 iirc cause problems if a face this big uses a lightmap. So cut your brushes into smaller ones

I just noticed now those brush side from entities which is not seen in-game still affect to lightmap limit and compile time (i don't know other entities but nav_prerequisite do)
so i need to decrease lightmap of those brushes for solve that problem

Generally if you dont want a brushface to render and get lightmaps generated for it (for example faces that are obstructed by world geometry) you should use nodraw.
