animeweeblord42 0 Posted May 31, 2013 Slightly different error this time, and I'll re give the intro. I am creating a very large map for hl2, and I am very inexperienced but I have gotten very far.(And the due date is in a week- it's for school) So recently when I have been trying to compile it, it loads a previous version, not saving the changes I had clearly made, even errors that I had fixed still showed up in the compile log. I tried saving it to other names, but it gives me the ol' "file not found" error; which I have had a problem with for a while. Anyway, here's my compile log, I would like help with any other error you can see. Thanks for help in advance. Also I use a lot of fun_detail because my map has a lot of detailed pillars and railing, which are not props. ** Executing... ** Command: "c:\program files (x86)\steam\steamapps\saint_evening\sourcesdk\bin\ source2009\bin\vbsp.exe" ** Parameters: -game "c:\program files (x86)\steam\steamapps\saint_evening\half-life 2\hl2" "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\saint_evening\sourcesdk_cont ent\hl2\mapsrc\yeh.vmf" Valve Software - vbsp.exe (Sep 15 2011) 4 threads materialPath: c:\program files (x86)\steam\steamapps\saint_evening\half-life 2\hl2\materials Loading C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\saint_evening\sourcesdk_cont ent\hl2\mapsrc\yeh.vmf ConVarRef mat_reduceparticles doesn't point to an existing ConVar Could not locate 'GameData' key in c:\program files (x86)\steam\steamapps\saint_evening\half-life 2\hl2\gameinfo.txt fixing up env_cubemap materials on brush sides...

Ebic 0 Posted May 31, 2013 Hmm, don't assign func_detail to regular brushes. They do not stop light leaving your level therefore you can have leaks in your level. Load the pointfile and check whether that is an issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
animeweeblord42 0 Posted May 31, 2013 Would creating a large box around the map, say; a skybox work to fix all of the leaks? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ebic 0 Posted June 1, 2013 Yes, it would technically. Some people do this just as a safeproof to ensure the map is sealed. However I recommend checking your map for holes before this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rhododendron 994 Posted June 13, 2013 Hmm, don't assign func_detail to regular brushes. They do not stop light leaving your level therefore you can have leaks in your level. Load the pointfile and check whether that is an issue. uhhhh func_detail - Valve Developer Community "The point of creating a detail brush is precisely to avoid effects," I can't remember that tool that checks for leaks in the map, it's like in the tools menu but you should run that always before compiling. Also shouldn't you use func_brush for most brushes if you have no specific purpose for it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ebic 0 Posted June 13, 2013 No silence, lel, func detail doesn't 'cover' your map up. The loadpointfile can go through it. And also, I never use func_brush for every brush because it requires that you seal off your map because like func_detail it doesn't stop things 'leaking' out of your map. Like it's not visually but the pointfile detects it as a leak, if you know what I mean, like it just puts a redline through the brush indicating leak.

snakeboyeric 0 Posted June 13, 2013 Would creating a large box around the map, say; a skybox work to fix all of the leaks? That's a very bad mapping practice, but don't get me wrong i've used it before. I basically had to redo all of parabellum because I had a giant box around it and knew it wasn't good mapping practice. If this just for an art/design class it should be fine but you can also use the CORDON tool in hammer to cordon off areas of the map that you don't want to compile and search for the leak(s) in addition to loading the pointfile (sometimes the pointfile points to things that arent the problem). Basically you split the map in half, rename the parts map_a and map_b, compile both sections as new maps and test. Repeat on the leaked part until you narrow down the problem. Usually it is the wrong entity type for brushes/map props or after you have used the carve tool. Try the pointfile method Ebic mentioned first, its easier. Testing is a bitch.
