Q: My Terrain has disappeared. What happened to it?

A: Sometimes when working on BSP Brushes and portals a hole may appear and when this happens it's quite likely that your terrain will disappear. This is because a zone is leaking into another zone somewhere and terrain is only shown in 1 zone. So when the zones mess up then your terrain disappears. To fix this find the hole and fix it; it's likely to be linked with the area you were last working on.

Q: Some Static Meshes are only visible on 1 side. Why?

A: This is because the SM was created for a particular map and on that map you only needed to view the SM from the 1 angle. By not creating a rear to the SM lowers the users framerates since the engine doesn't have to render extra work which isn't going to be view anyway.
