JBN Decompiler Compatibility - noodlecollie/afterburner-compiletools GitHub Wiki
The following was taken from the JBN BSP Lump Tools repository.
Introduction
As the decompiler is now in nearly perfect shape, it's time to make a compatibility list. Below is a list of maps and their optimal decompiler options.
One thing to keep in mind, although 87 or 72 bad solids may sound like a lot, compared to the several thousand solids in the entire level this is a relatively small number.
Note: There might be a coefficient that works better than the one listed here. Also, when using a coefficient of 1, round-off errors may cause solids to not line up properly. Use a larger coefficient if necessary (such as 10 or 100).
Note: the coefficient value corresponds to the Options -> Set Plane Point Coefficient option in the decompiler.

Identifying Bad Solids
Does the map you're decompiling have bad solids? Wondering where or what they are? Follow these steps:
- Open the map in GearCraft
- In one of the 2D views, zoom out all the way
- Press Ctrl+A to select the entire map
- Go into vertex manipulation mode (this forces the editor to recalculate all vertices and save them)
- Go back into selection mode
- Go into Map -> Check for problems
- Select one of the "Invalid solid structure" entries
- Find the solid in the 2D and 3D views
