1) http://zhlt.info/special-textures.html

2) When you are using the Brush tool, take a look at the bottom-right side of your screen. There are 2 drop-down lists: Categories and Objects (the Categories should already be on Primitives). Set the object to Cylinder. Now create your cylinder just like you would create a normal block. If you want to rotate the cylinder, use the Transformation Tool (Ctrl + M).

3) You can rescale, rotate and shift textures using the Texture Application Tool (Shift + A).

4) Open the armoury_entity's properties (Alt + Enter) and use the SmartEdit option. Things should be a lot clearer now.

Why, yes I do!

Make your window out of 2 thin brushes the have air in between. A bullet is CS can not pass through 2 separate brushes.

normal brush, any texture (if you want glass, then glass texture), set the rendermode to solid and fx amount to something like 100.

Oh, sorry, I wrote the explaination on how to create transparent walls so many time today I thought I had already posted it here. The step-by-step instructions are now in the FAQ thread, by the way.
