To clarify, can you confirm that this problem is only with the model that separates the planks from the pillars? Like, the models that are just 4 planks and such. If it also persists outside of those models, please let me know. Thanks!

Yeah It only seems to appear on he sparate planks, the walls are working fine.
That makes sense now, thanks! I'll arrange to have those fixed along with a handful of other small fixes in v1.1.2.

I feel like we ought to establish some etiquette guidelines when it comes to using these. I'm seeing a lot of alpha maps, including very early alphas, that use a bunch of these when it isn't necessary. Common wisdom is to put off heavy detailing until beta, and regardless of your thoughts on that, I think it should especially apply if you're planning to use a lot of bandwidth-heavy custom assets. The tank, in particular, uses 2048×2048 textures per skin, and I've seen multiples of them just sitting around as decoration. Also, the custom resupply cabinet, which could easily just be the regular one for testing.
These broken window textures look a bit silly when ovelays from explosions and bullets also cover the broken glass. Not sure if this can be fixed but if it can be fixed it would make the texture work better close to combat areas.
Unfortunately that's how all glass textures work, and changing anything about it to remove the scorch marks from rockets would also remove the impacts from bullets, melees, etc. I imagine it wouldn't be too noticeable unless you were actively looking for it, though, but who knows!
The pack should get more WW1 stuff as well. Stuff like a WW1 Tank and Payload Cart, Bolt-Action Rifles, Vickers Gun, Biplane, Chemical Smoke Effects, Cavalry Sabre and other fun stuff for decor.
Im trying to make a map for the Frontline update. 
You guys think it's a good idea? (Also im new in this website)

How about one with Frontline!/Invasion/moon base theming. RED's base is retrofitted with alien technology from a nearby crash.Im trying to make a map for the Frontline update.
Unfortunately, I don't think the Invasion assets have been publicly released. Could still do a moonbase theme though.
I started making a normal WW2 theme map but i think i may just trash this map im making to make your idea! I think this update already have lots of people making WW2 normal themed maps, and one with alien stuff is actually pretty unique, thank you so much! I will use your idea and, if possible, maybe give you credit on the workshop for the idea. =)
Here's an in-Hammer what I was thinking of when I said this. It's reeeaally sloppy, as I threw it together in 15 minutes (8 of which were spent finding models.
My map is getting a little different (Also becouse i can't find the Invasion update models anywhere ;-; ) I even made my own alien spaceship which i think it's pretty good. Also im making a diferent kind of map based on your idea: An actual war in the moon and the name of my map is "Moon War 2" (WW2 Reference) =)
