<div class="IPBDescription">Leak Finders and the Like</div> I know that QuArK (Quake Army Knife) has a built-in leak finder. Are there any standalone progs that do this? Possibly a prog that supports the RMF format? Just curious.

Answering my own question and increasing the usefullness of this topic, I have posted the link for a standalone leak finder down below.

Nay

When you compile with leaks it should generate a pts file which you can directly load into hammer this will route you to holes in your map <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> can be a bit complex at first but use the specified entity in the compile log and follow the line from that to the region where the inside of the map is exposed to the outside

The answer to your question is yes theres is a standalone leak finder program but pts is probably the best i know of

i use the .lin file its much simpler than the .pts and it doesnt go thru solid brushes makes leakfinding that bit faster

How do you use the .lin file?

P.S. the Prog won't post even though it's small and zipped. Sorry guys. Here's a Linky though!

Same as loading the PTS file, just change the extension it's looking for to LIN.
