[edit] VIS phase minor switches:

[edit] -fast

• Only calculates rough visibility data. Quick and dirty, not actually useful for VIS purposes.

[edit] -hint

• Will merge the bsp leaves (except for hint portals) before calculating the visiblity list.

[edit] -merge

• Will merge the bsp leaves before calculating the visibility list.

[edit] -nopassage

• Disables the passage visiblity algorithm. Passage VIS is a bit faster and tighter than the old algorithm.

[edit] -nosort

• Disables the sorting of portals by complexity. Sorting speeds up visiblity calculations.

[edit] -passageOnly

• Will use the passage visibility algorithm only.

[edit] -saveprt

• Disables the automatic deletion of the .prt portal file after VIS finishes.

[edit] -v

• Enables verbose mode. Always use this.
