Everytime I create a world, room or otherwise the damn wall are all made up of 2 parts.  So no matter what I do texutures are screwed.  Anyone have ideas.

If they are like two triangles, you could try selecting them and right clicking, and select "Join all possible polygons", or "Join Polygons" or anything along the lines of that...

are all ur primitive settings right?
make sure shear x=0 and shear y=0
and that stretch x=1 and strech y=1
also make sure outer is checked.

Partridge, if hes just adding a cubed room he should be able to click on one face of the cube and select the whole face, i.e both triangles. u should have to triangulise polygon to be able to select individual tris.

Before you add each new primitive, make sure the drop down box next to the add primitive button says "none". Changing that property can cause some strange things to happen.

I appreciate all the real help I have got on this.  Alas...nothing has worked.  When I started I could add a room and in poly mode select one side, it never split into tri's.  I think I am gonna have to reinstall.  ITs too difficult trying to adjust my level making.  Thanks again guys.
