Sorry for making like the millionth post about this, but i cant seem to figure it out, when I am compiling the structure i get it to build the geometry up until it says "building collision BSP" then all these errors come up saying "cannot build BSP because of overlapping surfaces <orange>" "cannot build BSP2D" "cannot build leaf" "failed to import collision BSP" I have tryed almost everything, and I followed the Kirk tutorials, if you can please tell me what i am doing wrong, or what I need to do, thanks.

Would creating "Player Clipping " geometry have anything to do with it, because I didnt do that.

They are all error with your geometry. I spent about 5 hours this weekend cleaning up errors in my map but, thank God, it finally works. I'm running radiosity now... That's usually when I browse the forums. Good time to kill.

You have to run STL check on it or just import your error geometry like the HEK tutorial says. You'll have this problem less as you learn to model better. ;)

hmmm mine is about 12000, takes about 2 minutes to walk side to side on foot. lets see, the bases would be like a 30-40 second drive. yours is 99999 so thats about 8 times bigger. so thats a 4-5 minute drive from base to base with all the twists and turns. dude, cut it down

gemini there is a video called something like openedges.wmv that shows u how to step by step fix open edge errors using the debug files generated by tool. Fixing your error will be a very similar process to this. Last I looked, this video was hosted on this site, or if not, on gearbox software forums. ;)
