big block method: make half of the map inside of a big solid block. if error gone -> error is inside the big block -> delete half of the block and continue if error not gone -> error is outside the big block -> make another block around half of the not blocked part and continue.
a lot of time max leaf faces is a result of bad carving, other times it is a complex regular brush "fragging" another one it intersects with. other times it is something else. good luck!
once i had a leak , was so small, i had to scrap the map intierly. then some dude found the leak, and submitted it as ns_nothing
what a jerk. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
