Ok ... interesting. I'll test it.

These seem pretty cool. From looking at each of them, though, it's not really clear to me what purpose these brushbuilders would serve. Maybe the Tris brushbuilder could be used for structure support?

Mostly terrain mapping and any more organic structure benefits from tessellated brushes.

PaperCoffee is correct. My BrushBuilders are mostly for organic builds. For a good example look at how I built DM-AMC-CalderaCrust (from the AMC mapping contest), almost every brush in it is either the PolyCube or TesCube.

I built the TesVolumetric and TesTerraSheet specifically for creating Static Meshes with the 227 patch.
