You could do something related to Left 4 Dead 2. Maps from this game are pretty complex, specially in versus mode. It should help a lot.

Thanks.

Hi. I have some questions as to what capacity I can use the hint/skip textures. Here is a link to a chart that I made so that I can understand how much more I can optimize my maps using the hint/skip textures. Please elaborate about the chart. If you have any questions about the image please do not hesitate to email me. Well here is the link to the chart:

Just so you know, I am working on a 7-8 map campaign for L4D2. Thanks in advance! The article above is actually the best article I’ve seen regarding the hint/skip texture. An article that definitely needs to be in the SDK Documents.

Vander Said: I have never read a more easy to understand tutorial on optimization. Thank you x100!

I have to agree with this ;P! Helped me a lot with the L,T,W shapes and the area portals. I’ve heard though that occluders should be considered a last resort. But whatever .

Amazing guide Mangy! I’ve never been able to properly grasp how to use hints correctly. This helped tremendously.

Holy hell this is amazing.

I might try this, keep my maps from lagging horribly.
