compile/bsp problem

Altus_Thrawn · February 18, 2003

My compiles have gone from useful to useless letters.

I was working on a map, and I did ALOT of work at once. I compiled, and got the old version. this was with "map nameofmap"

I tried doing

"devmap nameofmap"

and got

"couldn't find nameofmap.bsp"

I switched maps and then tried

"devmap nameofmap"

again got

"couldn't find nameofmap.bsp"

I loaded the pointfile-2 leaks, I fixed them and tried again. I got he above.

Made all brushes stuctural-got the above.

It turns out I have no BSP in my map folder.

The compile always quits after the first "paragraph" instead of the third.

I also tried renaming and recompiling the map with no luck.

suggestions?

EDIT: I save, then compile. This is what is in the text window in the bottom of radaint after i clicked compile:

Writing the compile script to 'C:/Program Files/GtkRadiant/qe3bsp.bat'

The build output will be saved in 'C:/Program Files/GtkRadiant/junk.txt'

Running bsp command...

Make sure none of the following show up:

JPEG ERROR: Requested Feature Omitted at Compile time

MAX_VERTICES_EXCEEDED

Otherwise it will NOT compile correctly. Also, leaks will not cause your map to not finish compiling in most cases.

I'm not sure what you mean...but I don't see that either in the compile box or in the window under the 2D view.

post your junk.txt file here.

is this what you want?

This means you will find a brush near the given coords that is touched by too many other brushes. Just cut it into two or more pieces as necessary.

Altus_Thrawn · February 19, 2003

stupid but-that looks like 3 sets of coordinates...

There's your problem right there. Break those brushes up into smaller segments.

3 sets, 3 examples, but only one long brush there.

Altus_Thrawn · February 19, 2003

I found the brush, thanks to both of you!

Ok, now junk.txt file looks fine, but when I try to load up my map, the game freezes. any ideas?
