This episode demonstrates just two methods we can use to optimize our maps, so people playing them experience silky smooth gameplay. Our discussion begins with Vis Portals; what they are, how they work, how to make them and where to place them in our maps. We also look at a command line tool which will help us diagnose any light overlap problems our maps may have.
