[Info] - Modular Design

[Piranhi]

I've seen a lot of people come to the forum recently, who want to know about modular building. These are a couple of PDF's I found quite a while ago which may help people get a grasp on the concept.

These should help alleviate any questions you have regarding the concept of modular level design.

Modular building makes programmers like me happy because then our games will cull stuff! yaaaaaay. Along with many other benefits.

It also gives us level designers a lot more freedom and options for optimizing. I try and build pretty much everything in a modular layout these days.
