So what is stopping you from using HINT BRUSHES to block VIS ?

Wow, that is truly a lot. Natural Selection's guide lines only allow maps with 700 w_poly in 'eye candy' locations and below 500 in all other areas. Have you already tried to resize textures, change the -chop value or are there any places where you can replace detail by textures?
