• Props Disappearing When Looking In A Certain Direction
    7 replies, posted
I thought it was some sort of leak but my pointfile and log show nothing. Basically, at one point in my map, if I look in a certain direction my props momentarily vanish, though I can still bump into them. They are fine when I look in any other direction. I think it's mostly static props that are affected. How do I stop my props from vanishing?
You should post the compile log.
Your visleaves are probably being split up in weird ways. Have you placed any hint/skip brushes in your map?
[QUOTE=Mozartkugeln;39635191]Your visleaves are probably being split up in weird ways.

I admit the area where this is occurring is oddly shaped so this could likely be the issue. Will post compile later today and I will add a hint/skip in the problematic area and will see if that solves the issue.
Tell you what, compile it, open the portal file ([I]Map → Load PortalFile[/I]) and then take a screenshot of the problematic area in Hammer's 3D view.
Okay got some pics. What's the best way to get them appear in the forum?

Problem solved. It was likely the fact I had a reflective glass entity that was in a portal that was next to a visible portal containing water. Doing that causes artifacts and other nonsense. Removed the mirrors and all is well.
