yes in way, but theyre VERY cheap to render, believe it or not :)
same can be said for static props.
and with snow its kinda hard not to have to do the entire outside area in snow. im gonna make it as optimal as possible, especially to consider the fact its a huge map
at the end of the day, one of the reasons hl2 was made was to look prettier than hl1, so im gonna try and maintain the highest level of detail possible without significantly decreasing fps, which is the goal of most mappers i think :D
