ok thanks I did it a couple of weeks ago but then forgot :P

How do you make a brush transparent? I want to put a lid on my map, but still make it so I can see the sky box.

How do I fix 'leaf portal saw into leaf'???

Oh my zhlt along with the .map is in C drive, and counter strike is in the E drive, so I'll try putting everything in E :)

anything on how to fix?

this is the text I put in the .bat:

@echo off
hlcsg -nowadtextures cmap
hlbsp cmap
hlvis cmap
hlrad cmap
copy cmap.bsp "E:\My Stuff\CS 1.6\Counter Strike 1.6 Reloaded\cstrike\maps
cd E:\My Stuff\CS 1.6\Counter Strike 1.6 Reloaded
pause
hl -dev -console -game cstrike +sv_cheats 1 +map cmap

My map name is 'cmap'. It says to open the batch file, so I do, is it supposed to still be a text file?
