hmm can you only have so many detail brushes in a map? because i made a big fence in a map and it has lots of brushes and i decided i would make it all detail and i did that then built and red crashed so i just made little sections at a time detail and i have only got like 3/4 of the fence detail and if i make 1 more brush detail red crashes when i build...
Take this into account:
When you make a brush a detail the video card has to render it no matter what. The more details you have on a map the more stress you put on RED.
Does that help?
hmmm i thought details made it easier on red...

before i made most of the fence detail i was half way to every "limit" now im not even close so isnt it better not being as close to the "limits"? theres less ps2's and t-joints after making most of fence detail too...
aww it wont let me build any more brushes now i guess im gonna have to un detail the fence Cheap RED
i just started the map too theres pretty much just the fence in it... so im gonna be quickly approaching the "limits" if i have to start off half way to each limit
' = Apostrophe hmm it adds \ b4 and after " too... bah it adds it everywhere
