You can ignore it if you can't find it. Bungie's own maps actually has quite a bit of those (D40 has a lot of them). Basically, you have something sticking though another part of the bsp, but it's still sealed.

Ok I tried runnning radiosity. I do radiosity_quality 0, then radiosity_start, but i get this error message "radiosity error: degenerate triangles[or triangles with bad uvs] (see blue in error geometry)"
What does that mean? --- Also I imported the wrl file and my map changed into a bunch of blue triangles. --- And Sapian is having errors about single player maps, when I open this one, but this is not supposed to be a single player map. Edited by halo1337 on Mar 20, 2010 at 03:38 PM |

What you need to do is take your map open it in 3ds max or whatever program you use, Then import the wrl file. It should be under your halo custom edition directory. Once thats done you will see the error triangle. make sure you tagged everything right too. if you have to rerun tool, models and structure

Ok thanks for the help.
I hate to sound like such a noob, but. . . . How would I go about re-UVing the triangle? Do I just delete them? |
