I found out why I had the leaks. The light was intersecting with the ceiling.

Now my problem is this. I get an error when I try to load the game in CS saying it could not open the WAD's. I put all my .wad files in my steamapps folder.

I just forgot to add the map name to these files. Oops...lol

But now I'm getting the leak error.

I've got the top, the bottom, and the sides covered. It says theres a leak in hull 0, 1, 2, and 3. It shows the cordinates and I dont see anything at those cordinates.

Here's the Error log:

Warning: === LEAK in hull 0 ===
Entity light @ (-1120, -64,-2320)
Error:
A LEAK is a hole in the map, where the inside of it is exposed to the
(unwanted) outside region. The entity listed in the error is just a helpful
indication of where the beginning of the leak pointfile starts, so the
beginning of the line can be quickly found and traced to until reaching the
outside. Unless this entity is accidentally on the outside of the map, it
probably should not be deleted. Some complex rotating objects entities need
their origins outside the map. To deal with these, just enclose the origin
brush with a solid world brush

It looks like it has something to do with the light. If you could guide me in the right direction it would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

I'm in class right now so I have to check it when I get done. That's probably all it is. I spent four hours learning this program and my brain was hurting too much to try and figure it out for myself.

I do have the files in the in the ZHLT folder.


*EDIT* Another thing, will this work in Condition Zero?

I just completed a map and when I compiled it I got this mapname.err

hlcsg: Error: Error opening mapname.map: No such file or directory

Not really sure what other info you need.


Also, I want this to work in Condition Zero. I noticed when it finished compiling it opened the earlier version.


I reeeaaaallllyy need some help. It's prolly somethin stupid.
