He wouldn't need that if he created a properly sealed skybox instead of a giant hollowed cube.

I thought you loved me!

The lack of nodrawing isn't the problem here. If something is outside the map, it automatically won't be drawn. The problem is that the underside is not outside the map, aka the skybox is a hollow cube
edit: psy beat me to it

Void, why didn't you think of making a better skybox first?

 

[Void]

Stages 2 and 3 still aren't fully polished. I didn't create better skyboxes for them. Stage 1, however...

Well, it's optimized isn't it!

 

[Randdalf]

Y'know, there is a little trick one could use in that situation which is texture replace any remaining dev textures (within a cordon of course), with nodraw. Which will have the knockon effect of nodrawing any other faces you forgot.

Stage 1, however...

Well, it's optimized isn't it!

No, it isn't.

@Randdalf: You wanna know an easier way? Map with nodraw. OR when you start detailing, nodraw the brush first, and only texture the sides you need.

Texture Application Tool > Replace

Then, replace all instances of a texture in the map with whatever you define.

But, of course, it is by far more important that you properly seal your map.

Would the dashing young lad responsible for that blueprint take a break from his lady friends and please step forward?

 

[Nineaxis]

Looks like I should dash in.

 

[absurdistof]

The table has an outlet? Some table...

 

[Void]

Maybe it's a vibrating table.

 

[absurdistof]

Maybe... Are those custom railings btw? Also this is stage 3 right?

 

[Void]

Stage 2. Railings are not custom. models/props_well/bridge_railing.mdl
