:That depends on how you place them. Func_details does avoid cutting up visleaves, increasing performance, but if misused for larger things like walls, it also makes the area visible larger, decreasing performance. Many maps has a lot of func_details, but just make sure that you only use func_details for small or complicated brushwork. --[[User:Andreasen|Andreasen]] 12:59, 7 Mar 2006 (PST)
