Dude! Use the clipper (x)

First clip it along one axis, switch views, clip the other and you're done

I have Southern France decompiled if you want it. The brushes are pretty screwed up--decompiling does that. But, I have been working on fixing/modifiying it.

thanks tltrude, but i have it decompiled myself!

[tltrude]

Well then send me yours, ha ha. I used the Japanese decompiler and it really did a number on the brushes. Anywhere there was adjusted textures, it made extra brushes. None of the utility brushes showed up, so all the doors had no origin brushes and all the clip was gone. All the trees/bushes/models were screwed up or missing too.

So far, I have fixed most of the doors, added some caulk faces, made new rooms in some of the buildings, opened up the small courtyards, and made new ways to get on roof tops. And, deleted about a hunderd extra brushes!!

Oh! Almost forgot, I got rid of about 4000 dupicate planes too!! I don't have much hope of repairing the map by myself, but it is fun to work on.

hehe... well im not trying to fix mine, good luck on yours
Im using mine as a reference, made me realise how the skybox is built around the map

There are some .map files that came with the editor in the docs folder.
