The point about bsp is that you only draw to the screen the polys that will be seen. This decreases the time spent on rendering the screen.

darkfluff : Apart from that it's not much better than .x

In my opinion X doesn't even scratch BSP
With BSP u get:
* Powerful editor's available
* Lightmapping which makes u're map look MUUUCHHHH better
* Calculation of collision zones are done automatically
* Angled polygon collision (not only box, which sux!)
* You get all of this with just one command in DBPro

Use X for regular objects, and BSP for the world.

Basically it's what every good first-person-shooter ie-halflife uses for it's maps.
