i have my answer : cover the model with a brush. the brush must have the system/clip texture ^^

[WadeV1589]

physics_clip would be better for the main part of the tree (just not the leaves) as it would also block weapons fire.

[alexx860]

there is anither way to "clip my tree ? because make a brush with the shape of the tree... its difficult lol

 

thx

There are other ways.....but this is the best way. It is far more bsp efficient than the other methods.

[gotcha8903]

the unmentioned other ways are bsp inefficeint? really?

You can have Q3Map2 do it for you. It creates a clip brush for every surface, which is inefficient, but a lot easier, and more uniform and accurate on complex models, despite the nature of one surface = one brush. We're still waiting for ydnar to write some better code for that...

and how can i do it with q3map2 ?

[gotcha8903]

hit "n" while the modl is selected. add the key:spawnflags, and the value: 2, then hit enter. the modle should then be solid in-game

that would just make the branches and leaves solid aswell which wouldnt look too good if u shot a rocket at it. its better just to make a 6 sided cylinder around the trunk, it doesnt have to be accurate

[alexx860]

no, just the trunk is solid, not the leaves !!

thanx you very much gotcha
