so i did everything in the tutorial, which by the way is extremely helpful, thanks, but i have a .err... it says:

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

ofcourse there's no such file, i'm trying to create it.. any help please? :)

and note i DID triple check the .bat and everything else is correct (no leaks, etc.) i'm pretty sure it has something to do with where i put the files. the .bat and .map are in a seperate folder than my maps folder in cstrike. mapname.bat and mapname.map are both in the zhlt folder. i don't know where to put the zhlt folder though, as it never said. so i placed it seperate from the other files.

i named the map testmap, which is where it got testmap.map from. but no files are actually called testmap.map, the only thing called testmap is the map name under the hammer map properties.

any help is appreciated thanks :D:D

EDIT: oh i just realize in my .bat i didn't replace ALL the mapnames with testmap. i though it was only the 4

nope, still doesnt work :(

oh and i just changed mapname.bat to testmap.bat i guess i missed the part where mapname is supposed to be my map's name. i guess the same thing goes for mapname.map?

EDIT: ugh.. now i got a new error..

hlcsg: Error: Could not open wad file documents and settingsAdmindesktoptfc.wad

hlcsg: Error: Could not find WAD file
Description: The compile tools could not locate a wad file that the map was referencing.
Howto Fix: Make sure the wad's listed in the level editor actually all exist

now it seems that it can't open the WAD file?? it worked fine in the editor..


EDIT: i found the problem.. i think.. apparently the files need to all be in the same drive. so i did move them all. At first i tried to replace the textures with the new file destination, but it didnt work. it was bugged. So i started over, i made a completely new map, and tried it again. It tried to load from the old destination again. But this time i was able to change it.

it works now :) thread closed.. thanks everyone (lol).
and btw, i guess a reminder there are some bugs in this program :( at least i think

There totally are. Unfortunately it's not SuperJer's program! The version used for CS 1.6 is no longer maintained; essentially, we are stuck with what we have.
