+=== Textures to Source ===
 The OBJ files are 3D models, but in order to create a workable level in Source, we need brushes instead of models.<br>
 There is no other way than to manually redraw all the surfaces as brushes, but we can import the level parts as model to use as reference to easily draw over it,<br>and the scaling to Source is such that the parts fit on the Hammer grid, thus creating an almost 1:1 replica.<br>
