Sorry, I know I could just compile like a cube or something, but I'm working on something and I'm kinda under time pressure right now, so could someone please just post the limits? I made a 60 sided arch into a kinda hollowed out cylinder, then made a big square under it and used the inside of teh arch to trace my carves and made a 60-sided whole... and over 1800 other brushes. There's also apparently over 10000 sides already.

Ah, i meant clipping not carve
I dont get it.
please post some screenshots from hammer, I dont understand your description.
The limits are much creater than that, a decent map uses alot more brushes and sides than that.
You don't have to worry.
limits please? I dont know how to take screenshots of my desktop. Ok, I turned an arch into a full circle and made it 60 sided. When created, this makes a 60 sided almost circular tunnel. I then made a square brush underneath it, then, using the lines made by the inner circle of the arch to trace over, i used the clip tool to cut out a 60 sided whole. In the end it just looks like a straight downward 60 sided tunnel thing

Oh and I realize a normal map uses more than that, but the arch and the square were the only two brushes I'd actually made. I'm no where near done, and I have to do it again for the top of the tunnel.
I don't know the restrictions by heart, but I can assure you that it's MUCH more than that.
Ok then...
Use l and r to DO A BARREL ROLL

What the hell?
Anyways, I checked my old compile logs and the maximum number of brush faces are 524288 and the maximum amount of brushes are 98304.
Bah, I'll just post what it says:
[Code]Object names Objects/Maxobjs Memory / Maxmem Fullness
------------ --------------- --------------- --------
models 3/1024 144/49152 ( 0.3%)
brushes 201/8192 2412/98304 ( 2.5%)
brushsides 1412/65536 11296/524288 ( 2.2%) [/Code]
So I say that you're quite safe, go back to mapping :smile:
That's memory.
The maximums are 8192 and 65536 respectively.

Yeah, that's why I edited the post, I actually realized I looked at the wrong line :smile:
wellll... yeah. Unless I need to make another one of these tunnels. Just two would bring my brush count to 7200+ and my brush side count to 40000+. So I guess i just wont. :P Oh, and thanks.

oh, thanks to both of you. STOP POSTING WHILE IM TYPING!
If you want arches that complex, use a model.
er, ok, but why? a brush with 60 sides isnt that complex...
[editline]10:06PM[/editline]
uh, have to go to bed, can't defend myself tonight...
A brush with 60 sides is like... Impossible.
If you mean an arch with 60 sides that's wayy to many.
32 is more than enough for a circle of 512/512, for big things like gm_flatgrass_2008 as far as I know LarryG used 128 side arches.
