If I want to make an object, how to make it very "exactly"? I mean if I want to make a 4321x1234x1234(example) object, where to input the exactly figures of the X/Y/Z?

I don't think you can do that (apart from modifying the .map file with a text editor), but you can see the size of any brush by enabling 'draw sizing info' in the view menu.

.map file

Well, as a test, make a new map and place only one small brush on it with texture. Then save is as "mytest" or whatever. Colse the editor and find the file named "mytest.map". Open it with Wordpad and you will see how numbers are used to draw the brush in the game. Try copying the brush numbers and pasting it below the first one. Then change the location/size and brush number (should be brush 1). Save the file and open it in the editor to see your (now) two brushes.

Seems like a silly way to make a brush to me but, if you figure out how the numbers work, you can make things that way.
