OK, im new to mapping, ive made a platform and i want to put a little lip thing around the edge, like on bespin ffa, on the platform. How wouldi make that? Also, i made a platform, and put space textures around it, i made the bottom trigger_hurt, and when i load the map and i jump down, it doesnt hurt and my screen starts to go fuzzy, and i have to like restart, if you want me to send you the level and show you, just give me your email and ill send it pronto. Thanks.

number 1) never make a side of a bounding box around your level a trigger. triggers are non-rendered ingame and therefore will cause what you said happened. Always make another equal size brush and make it a trigger hurt.

 

what actually happened was when it was non-rendered it created a form of leak. what you're actually seeing when you get the infamous "hall of mirrors" effect is the void itself. the area outside of the actual map.

 

number 2) that platform was probably done using brushes making like a slightly larger version of the actual platform to go around it and then cutting it and clipping it to where it would look like a lip.

 

hope i helped out a bit.
