Reduce the number of adjoins/surfaces you can see at one time. This usually has to do with planning your cleaves before you make them with framerate in mind.

And depending on the nature of the bridges etc. that you have added, you may just want to go ahead and make them 3dos, which do not require any adjoins.

It's just something you have to sit down and figure out. I'm not sure if I can be of much more help than that. You need to think "how can I do this with the fewest number of visible adjoins?"

too many or very complex 3dos affect the framerate, too.

hang on, just how important is this frame stuff? Framerate is cut in half in my sg1 level, but the architecture is really complex

Code:
if(getThingFlags(source) & 0x8){
  do her}
elseif(getThingFlags(source) & 0x4){
  do other babe}
else{
  do a dude}

The worse the framerate - the worse it will look (if you get too low it will start to look jerky). This is especially a problem on lower end computers.
