I haven't had that happen yet. I think I'm having a leak problem with CSG subtract with a water brush, but that's not quite the same issue. Anyhow, I have a map where I have a cylindrical hole in the floor, which is more or less hottub-sized :) and to fill it with water I made a rectangular brush that surrounds the bottom of the cylinder. works fine. And I'm using glquake, with a FireGL... ---------------------- mespinoz@tivoli.com ------------------------- You are what you do when it counts. --The Masao --------------0E1759D60477562D95C2B500 Content-Type: text/x-vcard; charset=us-ascii; name="vcard.vcf" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Description: Card for Martin Espinoza Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="vcard.vcf" begin: vcard fn: Martin Espinoza n: Espinoza;Martin org: Tivoli Systems email;internet: mespinoz@tivoli.com title: Engineer x-mozilla-cpt: ;0 x-mozilla-html: TRUE version: 2.1 end: vcard --------------0E1759D60477562D95C2B500--
