Have you tried doing a final light compile? Most of the weird shadows will go away with a -final light compile.

MBuilder

If you are using MBuilder to compile, you would click on "change" under "Light Options", and put a checkmark next to "-final". It will take longer, but it makes your map look better.

make one big brush on top of the arches. So make the brushes between the arches a little bitt lower and put one big brush on top of em.

like:

Code: Select all
