Close but its the caulk texture that makes the compiler ignore the face thus quickening compile time.KillerSam wrote:No draw is used when you are using transparent texture for example if you have a window in a window frame - you only need the 2 visible faces o the window to have the glass texture - the remaining 4 textures (that are adjacent to the frame) will need no draw - otherwise you will be able to see inside the frame. Nodraw just means that the compiler ignores that face essentialy.
No, you cant use caulk for this.
Hope thats right...Drofder?
I made a zip of all the useful clips and what they do. Search around here for something like that

Yep, caulk is 100% ignored by the engine, which is why when caulk is placed next to another wall, the wall will have a hole in it as the compiler ignored that section of wall. Nodraw however is drawn transparent. The engine does draw it, but it is invisible, so anything touching it will still be drawn.
