[ThrawN_11]

Im kinda new to map making and now i have a good size map, (over 100k), but when i go to complile my map this is what happens,

i go

->bsp -> fullvis (xtra) then a dos prompt pops up, if i am right, you should see you map compileing but it just stops after this

==================

Running bsp command...

 

C:\PROGRA~1\LUCASA~1\STARWA~1\GameData\Tools\\sof2map -bsp C:\PROGRA~1\LUCASA~1\STARWA~1\GameData\\base/maps/room106.map

 

C:\PROGRA~1\LUCASA~1\STARWA~1\GameData\Tools\\sof2map -vis C:\PROGRA~1\LUCASA~1\STARWA~1\GameData\\base/maps/room106.map

 

C:\PROGRA~1\LUCASA~1\STARWA~1\GameData\Tools\\sof2map -light -extra C:\PROGRA~1\LUCASA~1\STARWA~1\GameData\\base/maps/room106.map

and the dos prompt just stays there i wait for 4 hrs and it hasnt changed, when i got to click out of the dos prompt it just stays there and then it comes up with "the programe is not responding do you want to end now or let it carry on".

Put these commands in a batfile, and run that. Then you'll get the info of what is actually happening.

Bat file, could you please explain more?

Make a txt file with these lines and rename it to "runme.bat" (or whatever).

 

If you run the file (double-click), a dos window will open and the program runs. You have just entered the wonderful world of DOS. Congratulations.

 

(I noticed that the dos window sometims keeps closing for some unknown reason. If this happens, you have to enter the lines in the Windows Dos Prompt (under start menu->programs).)
