Ok.

Gold quote about carve tool:

"NO

FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS SACRED NO!!!

Do not carve! Never, ever, carve anything more complex than a box into another box, and even then you're probably better off using the clipping tool. Carving will choose for you how it cuts up the brushes, and it'll almost always choose horrific awful ways. I deliberately linked to archtutorials because that's the best way to make a circular hole.

I repeat for emphasis:
NEVER CARVE ANYTHING MORE THAN A BOX IN ANOTHER BOX"

Any change you need to do the carved object... Yeah, no, you need to re do it if you have to make any changes to the carved object.

Arches are better anyways.

It was never a order, it was a suggestion.

It was never a order, it was a suggestion.

and everyone had to yell me not use it?

However the reason why people recommend you to stop using carve is quite simple.

"Never, ever, carve anything more complex than a box into another box, and even then you're probably better off using the clipping tool. Carving will choose for you how it cuts up the brushes, and it'll almost always choose horrific awful ways."

Aren't you having problems with compiling?
Also how I could tell it was carved, these brush faces are being rendered when they shouldn't be. You should no draw them, I guess it it func_detailed to?

 

[TMB]

in my alpha versions i never use nodraw, only for water, the rest of things have dev textures

 

[Bakscratch]

But you are having some compile issues no?

 

[TMB]

you think that must be this? I think NO

 

[Bakscratch]

Did you try to compile without it?

 

[TMB]

Wait a minute, you made watergate?

 

[Viemärirotta]

Seriously, which one should you use, a tool that does the shape for you with a horrible outcome (carve) or a tool that does the shape for you with a good outcome (arch, cylinder, spike, wedge etc.)

 

[Flower_Shop_Guy]

I think yes.

That's wrong.

 

[TMB]

I think yes.

That's wrong.

[Viemärirotta]

[TMB]

I do it in my way

 

[Viemärirotta]

It can't be a leak because you sealed the entire map in a skybox box.
