Brush that blocks bullets/projectiles?

I need to make an invisible brush that blocks incoming bullets and projectiles, but still allows players to pass through it. Help please?

Try the blockbullet texture. Im not sure if the players can pass it.

I think blockbullet texture, then tie the brush to func_illusionary may work. Not entirely sure.

apply one of the metal ibeam textures to a brush then tie that to func_brush and set the render mode to 'don't render'.

Thanks, thanks, and thanks.

blockbullets clips players, func_illusionary is a good idea, but I think it cancels the effects of the texture (aka, you can see the brush as you would in hammer, but wouldn't have the properties of a normal texture) and Psy's idea made me go "WTF? How would that work?" but he usually knows what he's doing

Word to the wise: being able to move through a place you can't shoot through is generally bad and breaks immersion faster than a kick in the dick... Use it with care.

It's not a realistic map it's a "fun" map.

Anways, I've had no success with these. The closest was Psy's method, but players are unable to walk through the brush.

Set it to nonsolid.
