Stretch your textures as big as you can get them, but still get your desired effect. Here is a little experiment to better help you understand how this all works. 1)Open RED 2)Create a room with dementions 100 x 100 x 100 3)Rebuild, now look at the amount of ps2 faces you have (probably alot) *the above example is a bad way to build* 1)Open RED 2)Create a room 10 x 10 x 10, NOW use the Strech tool and make the room 100 x 100 x 100 3)Rebuild, now look at the number of ps2 faces(much less, if not 0) *Notice the default texture is now much bigger in the second room* The key is to strech your brushes when making somwthing big and keeping the textures in cheak accordingly.

Your 100x100x100 brush should have at least 5 splits along each axis. You can create splits in brushes before you begin building them, alternatively you can try clipping a brush [doesn't always work] if it has already been built. You won't need to worry about scaling textures or brushes and you will also be able to Apply Map so that the textures will always look nice [not stretched]. If I ever get to where I am going, will I know when I am there?     Predalienator   Posted 28th Aug 2005 8:20am Welcome! Post 195 / 1 Quoting Tech_N9ne It has to do with how you texture your map.
