vis
usage: vis [-threads #] [-level 0-4] [fast] [-v] bspfile


fast
This will only calculate a very loose visibility list. It doesn't take much time to calculate, but a lot more polygons will be drawn by the Q3 engine than necessary.

hint
Enabling this switch enables -merge, but will not merge hint portals.

merge
This merges bsp leaves before calculating the visibility list. This will speed up the vis calculations, but a lot more polygons will be drawn by the Q3 engine than necessary.

nopassage
This will disable the passage visibility algorithm. The passage vis is faster and a bit more tight than the old algorithm.

nosort
This disables the sorting of portals by complexity. Generally, sorting will speed up visibility calculations, because portals that are more complex can use information from less complex portals.

passageonly
WARNING: Unknown option “-passageonly”

saveprt
This disables automatic deletion of the .prt file after creating the visibility list.

tmpin (path)
The input files will be read from a folder called tmp.

tmpout (path)
The output files will be written to a folder called tmp.

These need further work/clarification
