OK I know you can’t give me an answerer to how long mine would take. However I would like to know how long your maps take of a similar file size and on what spec pc just to give me a general idea of length of time it takes to do.
My system is Athlon 1.4GHz 768mb PC 2100

It should be compile not longer than 30 minutes or so....
If it took very long ..probably wrong detail settings!

Walls, all walls that are outside walls...umm..yuo know...like a skybrush or walls sepereating a room from the outside should be detail 0..all else..like rocks, cars, columns etc should be detail 1
