BSP alternatives?

does anybody know what some alternative options are to BSP?

This no concave geometry shit is such a bitch to deal with.
trying to do any kinda of realistic geopgraphic terrain seems near impossible.

Heh unless Joe knows, this probably isn't the place to ask. I know that BSP stands for Binary Space Partitioning and I know roughly how it applies to DOOM but that's about it.

theirs probably nothing I can do about it anyway.
except suffer thru it or pray that somebody plowshares has made a plugin that will cut up the shapes for me.

its really brought to my attention tho how theirs no hills and valley or any real natural looking land forms in quake quake 2 quake 3 quake 4 doom 3 half-life or half-life 2.

its all just slopes really.

Hmmm. You usually can't get right to the top of a hill. It boxes you in. UT2003/4 was a slight improvement. Apart from that, the last time I remember seeing any dramatic scenery was Duke Nukem 3D with that level set in the Grand Canyon.
