BLACk Blobs on Textures

I have just about finish my new map but I have several areas where black blobs appear on the texture of brushes.

If you shoot at them the light flash makes them disappear until
the light flash ends.

Has any 1 else experienced this ? Can be Fixed ?

Hope you can help, it's the only thing holding back the release.

The blobs ar probably shadows caused by overlaping brushes, detail ceillings, skybox cracks, and lod terrain errors. Most of them should go away when you do a final light compile.

Which leads me to a question. What is the final compile?

"-final" is one of the "LIGHT Options" in the upper left of Mbuilder. The other two should be set on verbose ( -v ). A verbose vis compile and a final light compile will take longer, but I think you will be pleased with the results.
