ok, why the hell are there 3 bsps in one level???? i mean, wouldn you have just one, for just the one level? or maybe i dont understand the whole idea of bsps! anyways, could anyone post a post about each of the bsps and what they are, and then an admin make a sticky about it?

its because the game has loading zones....where it loads the next section, otherwise i think the game would use too much RAM

Or something like that... theres a limit to the amount of vertices and stuff that a BSP can have/hold, and so when it reaches it's limit, or when the level designers decide that a place would be good for a loading point (like a place in a tunnel where there are no enemies), a loading point is made, and the map is seperated into more than 1 BSP.

More people really need to read Bungies FAQ for Halo. THey made loading zones because if they didn't, the game would be way more lagy then it already is! And many more reasons.

Bungie actually had to put THAT in a FAQ!?! o.o'
Man... pretty soon they'll have to put in why they didn't make jackals have more of a sense of humor..
