EXACLY! Done with any map smaler than hammer grid.
[QUOTE=Firegod522;20478247]Why don't you split them up into 3-4 different sections and compile each individually, then import each into hammer and just move them together, then compile?[/QUOTE]
because then the map would only have 3-4 brushes, I'd need something to turn each polygon into a brush.

Oh, I almost forgot, I did a full port of that thunderdome map by hand just to see how hard it was. Note that it's not the original textures because the map converter had issues with the texture files.

Might make a good starting point for a TF2 KotH map..

There is a newer version of the map thats out right now. That may help you.
There is also an older version that just gives you access to the field, nowhere else.
Want the links?

Yeah, that would be helpful, if it's got less polys, it's going to be much easier for me to port.
Did a bit more research, it may be possible to do a model port of the current map, I'm gonna see how studiomdl takes the 32k polys this map has...

Looks like I have to split the map up into 4 or so models, here's the limit:

The polygon limit of ~10000 is per Material ID.

if I learn how to split up the map into 4 or so segments, then use that as a reference to make my map, yes.
