Ok, got a question. Does anyone know, either, what group/object name of the path/bridge across the hallway in CTF-Checkmate is called or how to make one??? I need a bridge that is about .......maybe 20-25 meters long that is like the one in CTF-Checkmate. I was going to make a bridge in a new map, but with it being geo-mod, players can just rocket is to pieces, lol. Thanks for the help in advance!

I dont understand KILLER, why not just make your own bridge? The bridge in checkmate is a mear brush with like 5 vertex edits

Do it the easy way:
Set the geomod-range to "100" within the level properties.
Nothing will be destroyed in the level.
Then create geomod-regions (within "objects", where you want to have destroyable areas.

I didn't know how to make it "undestroyable" but not that I know that I can just make it a detail brush, it rocks.

Like, if I want to make a 2 x 2 x 0.2 meter section able to destroy in a wall, I just make a geo region exactly that size?

As long as the geo region touches an air brush as well, it is possible.
The region you can destroy is a little bit bigger in the end, but you have to hit the wall (or whatever) exactly within the georegion measures, otherwise there would be no effect at all.
Of course you still could make some detail brushes around the georegion to make sure that only acertain area is blowing up. e.g. a door, but the doorframe is made out of details...

An airbrush? Uh oh. The only airbrush I have in the LEVEL is the skybox above the level. If I make an airbrush outside of the level, the rest of the level will disappear.

No geo regions will work if a solid brush is not touching the air brush around your level, and there are no detail brushes in the middle. Think of detail brushes as a brush that doesnt exist until you play the level

I searched for it, but couldn't find it

But when I build geometry it makes my whole level black! :S Maybe I should make whole level geo....
