Honestly,what the fuck?So today,i've had some "brush outside world" shit and i somehow managed to fix it and the map compiled .. then i tried to run the map and i get an "AllocBlock:full" error .. i think i'm gonna end up having bunch of big maps sitting there like they were never done,this is bullshit .. i'm fucking tired of deleting and re-making shit,i mean if i have to make shit and delete it and then re-make it in order to make a map what's the fucking point?FUCK THIS SHIT .. (actually fuck Valve for making shitty hammre )

You are making maps for a game which is now very old. The technology back then was not as capable. Not only are these old tools, they are old buggy tools. You're going to have issues. Also, follow the rules and you'll be mostly fine. Or map for a game which was released in the last 5 years.

Warning: the tools for the newer stuff (CS:GO and L4D2 at least) can be even buggier. Or at least the bugs change more often.

If you start mapping for newer games like these, make SURE to check out how Valve made their maps. There are examples.

One thing that's very counter-intuitive is that, in the newer stuff, you can have even less world brushes. If you have more than 6 or so world brushes per room, things will go to shit.

Well, I was going to suggest something like UT. But nobody plays UT and the other big games of the moment have no available tools, so... pretty much it's Valve.

So what you are saying is, Valve made this game?
