What do you mean by clip, as to me it sounds as if you mean cut, using the clipper tool.

Using a clip, as KS said, is the same as making a wall, but using a clip texture.

As for renaming, you can rename any .map file, but do not rename after compiling (.d3dbsp)

true.

In that case, textures < tools
Different clips do different things, check the iWiki for a list of tool textures.

i mean clip prefabs, the wall i put on i can walk through, when i dont want to, walls should be solid, but these prefab ones im using arnt, if i walk right to it i go through the wall, i dont want to do that or i fall of the map.. so i need to make things sold/clipped, or what ever.?

Could also make caulk walls the same size and places as the prefab walls.
You could also make your own prefabs..
