if you can't see it in radiant, check to see if you have some filters on, there in the view, filters menu.

if that doesn't work then find the area where the brush is(guess in other words) draw a brush around that area. then go to the selection nenu and click, "select inside".
it's not a time for thinking its a time for drinking!

Well, try placing a large brush around the spot where it shows up in the game. Then go to Selection > Select Inside. That should highlight it.

One way brushes can be 'invisible' in radiant is if there are filters turned on. You can find out what filters are on by selecting the 'view' menu, then 'filters' and any filters being applied will be checked off. Uncheck all filters and everything should be visible. Also, filters are listed in the header bar of the window radiant is opened in (at least they are in mine, I'm running Me, I'm not sure if OS makes a difference).

I hope that's all it is. I've had some wacky thinngs happen with my filters on there own. (Suddenly, all my detailed brushes were gone. I thought I had lost em, turned out the 'details' filter had turned itself on.) :?

If everything else fails and you know what texture is used on the brush then you can open the map in notepad and search for all brushes that have that texture on them and write down the brush numbers . Then open the map in radiant and do edit-> find entity/brush to select all the entities and brushes with that texture 1 by 1 until you find the right one . Last thing I would try though .

I know why this problem is occuring. U must have moved the entire map (ie 200Brushes or more)

Just select the entire map egain, and move it over a couple units.

I did this and it fixed my map.
Ive played more than u.
