Thanks for all your help you have rendered up, I really appreciate it. I am having a real problem with Jed. I am still using ver .51 to build architecture with, because I just cannot use the new controlls in .8 when I get more than a handfull of sectors to work with. Any how, it has been about a week since I worked on any of my level's architecture (the biggie I am putting together), and today I open it up and find a bunch of non-convex sectors. These have occured in an underground river I have built, and when I finished it there was no problem at all. This is not the first time this has happened to me, and I am realy wondering what is up. I allways check for consistancy errors whenever I have finished a small section, or after doing something "questionable" :-) . On not one single occasion have I saved the jed or jkl with any consistancy errors showing. So I am wondering, have you seen or heard of anything like this before? If so, is there a cause/solution you know of? As another point to this, these sectors seem to only be outdoors ones, the same way they seem to be affected by the Jell-O texture syndrome. I am wondering if maybe Jed has a tendancy to write some vertices incorrectly when it saves on occasion. Or maybe the consistancy checker is wrong, to my eye, I cannot see where these sectors are not convex. Thanks for any input, this has been something of an ongoing problem, and it is getting frustrating having to go back and redo what was fine before.
