Using this tutorial
http://www.superjer.com/learn7.php

I copy the stuff in and change it as follows

@echo off
hlcsg -nowadtextures daniel1
hlbsp daniel1
hlvis daniel1
hlrad daniel1
copy daniel1.bsp "F:\Other\Counter Strike\Counter Strike 1.6\cstrike\maps"
cd F:\Other\Counter Strike\Counter Strike 1.6
pause
hl -dev -console -game cstrike +sv_cheats 1 +map daniel1

(my map name is daniel1)
(Yes, counter strike is on my 4 gig USB)
(The directory of it is F:\Other\Counter Strike\Counter Strike 1.6)

Ok, all is fine right?
I run it.

I read through it an realise its saying:
Error: Could not open wad file \program files\counter strike 1.6\cstrike\cstrike.wad

So, i copied counter strike to my
C:\program files\
So now it is the following directory
C:\program files\counter strike 1.6\cstrike\cstrike.wad

Then i changed the .bat file to be this:
@echo off
hlcsg -nowadtextures daniel1
hlbsp daniel1
hlvis daniel1
hlrad daniel1
copy daniel1.bsp "C:\program files\counter strike 1.6\cstrike\maps"
cd C:\program files\counter strike 1.6
pause
hl -dev -console -game cstrike +sv_cheats 1 +map daniel1

I run it (yes all files are in zhlt folder).
Exact same error!

Please help!
I want to do it all on my USB if possible

Thankyou for reading.

You have two drives-- C: and F:.

You need to have ZHLT, your CS directory and all WAD files to be on the same drive.

they are.

Its all on my USB
My counter strike is in
F:\Other\Counter Strike\Counter Strike 1.6
My ZHLT is here
F:\Other\Counter Strike\Other\zhlt253-17

inside it is my map and the .bat file called daniel1

But where are your wads?


Doesn't seem to be where CS is installed...

exactly
I can physically change the program to look in a different directory, so thats why i tried moving CS to my C:\ so it was in that directory. But it still couldn't find it.

any ideas?

So you have CS on your C: drive and on your USB and you have zhlt and map on your USB, correct?

Now if you want to compile from the C: drive, you have to have everything on the C: drive. So copy your map, zhlt tools and batch file to C: if you don't have them there yet and try again.

Also make sure the .bat file is in the same folder as the compile tools .exe files and the .map file of your map.

Also note, if you've moved around the wads after have added them into Hammer I think you need to re-add them, ("Tools"--->"Options"--->"Textures") then restart Hammer and then re-export your map to .map-file.

Thankyou so much!
Turns out the zhlt needed to be in C:/ drive.
I wouldn't of thought of that, cheers guys!

Now to continue and get bored after awhile
