As I mentioned earlier here, I've werked on the example map for that method.

The problem was on my end; for some reason I had to manually force the final d/l link to open in a new tab to get Firefox to actually grab it. Sorry about the confusion.
I just had a chance to run around it really quickly...it looks okay. I saw one "notex" face on the floor in a corner.
On the one hand it certainly proves that your method works, and is a viable method of making a map. On the other hand, I'm personally not convinced it's really useful, rather than just a novel way of working, and I'm pretty sure that, for me at least, it would be very slow compared with just making the map in radiant. I'm not sure what, if any, gameplay differences you were illustrating...?
Cool tech demo anyway.
/me goes back to working on a little CTF map...

@pjw
You found it!
If you grab the shotgun without turning around, you won't find it.
That's why I missed it.
Thank you for the debugging.
and...
please be sure to submit your ctf map.
@dnky
1000FPS?
I used no hint brushes.
The subdivided structural geometry did the job automatically.
In this map I used the exported geometry as it is.
But it should be possible to manipulate this as a base and re-brush with larger grids.
Anyway this method will provide a lot of decent prefabs, which would, otherwise, be harder or more time-consuming to sculpt in radiant.

So the weapon pickups are the triggers then? I missed the point for ages btw.... Then I noticed the thing witht he shotgun.
Sorry if I'm still missing the point here, but it looks like it was compiled with -patchmeta, is ther a specific reason for that?
***EDIT***, nevermind, I missed the link to the other thread at the top
I see now... Interesting.

1) Why? All of this is possible in GTK.
2) WHY???
3) NEVER release media that isn't power of two INCLUDING LEVELSHOTS. Hell it shouldn't be that high anyway.
4) WHY???????
5) Why do you have two stupidly large none power of two levelshots, one of which isn't even the right format?
6) WHY?!?!?!!!?
7) I haven't even loaded the level up yet but I can already see unwelded/incorrect vertex positions.
8) WHY?!?!!!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!
9) Why dont you just model it and insert the hard parts as a map model, leaving the rest to brush work and vising because thaT IS a faster method???
10) WHYWYWYWHWHWYWYWHWYWYWHYW!!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?
After loading the level:
11) Jump pads with no texture???
12) Missing textures?
13) No impact marks on ceiling?
14) Lower brick work acts like water but there is no water there?
15) WHY?!!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Um..Yeah, Right.....Why ask Why man?
..Only things I was going to mention is that I was running through invisible water, and the jumpads weren't there...which o'dium mentioned along with 9 Why's.
-also guys, You don't have to have a user account at FileFront. With the link not working..that actually happens quite a bit to some maps which are submitted to filefront by the mappers over at the ..::LvL beta section. Dunno why......

Gave your map a try and it seems to be ok apart from the minor issues people already mentioned.
As you call it a demo (and that's all it is, though I don't really get for what exactly
) I guess you don't want any comments on gameplay, item placement and things like that.
Didn't see anything in there that Radiant couldn't do in a few minutes, but it works.
