This is tough. We basically split all extended structures into two versions, one with 16-bit fields for Q1BSP and HLBSP (including BSP30ext) and another with 32-bit fields for QBSP2.
What it does is allow us to use the same engine binary for all supported formats and letting custom renderers, like PrimeXT, finally support QBSP2 alongside classic BSP formats.
What it doesn't, however, allow is to re-use existing custom renderers from Half-Life 1. Most, if not all of them, will probably crash after reading world
model_tand getting wrong offsets and pointers when QBSP2 map is loaded.Running a simple benchmark didn't show any significant drop in performance.
