does anyone no Jahrain's tool tricking method into ignoring overlapping surfaces? i no it's possible cause i saw one of his maps.. it has overlapping faces and it still goes through tool perfectly. also i accidentally added something and it was overlapping a part of the map. somehow it still went through tool.

Why not fix it? It's very simple to do.

because there's TOO many objects overlapping. and it takes a while to fix each one... but anyways i found out how to trick it. just run the tool structure command... and when u get the orange faces look for them. detach the elements that contain those edges... ex: say you ripped from a nintendo game. those models ususally have doors, rocks, etc. (thing's that are not part of the ground) as separate elements, overlapping the map's faces. (somehow nintendo gets away with it). to fix that create shaders etc. and when you get the overlapping edges that you are bound to get just look for the objects that it points at (usually a single object\element), detatch dont link to frame, export. and later export that little object as scenery... i guess tool looks for that error but since it's not there it ignores the face that there's others XD o well.. worked for me. if u need help add cellista X_X ill explain in an easier way... (i was in a hurry)

Or because its no longer attached to the frame. It it never exports. That means that it's not in the JMS file and therefore there in no error.

o well.. i dunno but it works. and it can be very useful. i don't have to worry about everything having to be attached to the map :o and you can't really tell the difference from it and a normal map.

oh and in response to you, there still were errors. but for some reason tool ignored them... you said it as if that was the only error.
