Summary	0004018: Incorrect VIS portal format in mapname.proc
Description	When starting up the map, I'm taken to the console where an error of the following format is printed in red text: ERROR: File foo/bar/mapname.proc, line 775: Expected ')' but found '128' I opened up the mapname.proc file in a text editor and looked at the line in cause, which is apparently the definition of a VIS portal as 4 corners. Apparently DarkMod doesn't like it when the values are defined between a single set of parenthesis, and expects each point to be defined between its own. To fix the problem, I had to manually change this line into this: /* iap 0 / 4 2 1 ( 128 76 160 128 116 160 128 116 232 128 76 232 ) / iap 0 */ 4 2 1 ( 128 76 160 ) ( 128 116 160 ) ( 128 116 232 ) ( 128 76 232 ) Is it the engine's fault for not understanding the first line, or the fault of 'dmap' for not generating the second line? I assume it's the later, since its format looks more correct to the eye, so I decided to report this as a DarkRadiant issue.
Steps To Reproduce	Run 'dmap' on any map containing VIS portals, then try to start it up in DarkMod.
