I found this little tutorial thing-bob at Blitzcoder.

I'm still not sure if the Blitz3D Vertex stuff is good for the creation of indoor level geometry.

The Vertex stuff seems more for 'special effects' stuff. I wonder if anyone has created a level on-the-fly with it (maybe for occlusion reasons) rather than use a pre-made level.

Edit:

Off Topic - but nice little physics tutorial:

and a (somewhat brief) particles tutorial:
