Q: Portal file missing?

When you receive an error telling you that the .prt file is missing, it means some error has occurred and as a result, the portal file was not generated.
Open a new thread and ask about the error that appears in your compile-log (mapname.log)

We will answer your question in your new thread.


Sorry to bring this burden about the forums but I honestly need some help here; I've read through most of what I could find and then I came across the FAQ post...

Here is my map log file:

hlvis: Error: Portal file 'testmap_beta.prt' does not exist, cannot vis the map


Now my map is a simple enclosed box with 1 brush (flat plane) with 2 spawns on it, ct spawn and t spawn. I believe i have a brush separating the spawns but that is the only other one.

The box enclosing it has the sky texture on it.

Hope this is enough information to find out what i am screwing up at doing. I followed the tutorials provided to make and compile a map.

Sorry for my newbie-ness and thanks to anyone who can help!

You have no entities or you have a leek, and try the check for errors funktion in hammer (ctrl+p) to fix your 'larger than expected texture' error.

And since when is leeches the plural of leek

...and that's the bottom line because Mate de Vita said so.

Your textures cannot be larger than 256x256. And, it seems your wad is corrupt.

Success!!
It turned out there was a leek, even though I could not even see one!

So I remade the map and made a more enclosed environment making sure each texture was small(er?); I'm assuming you do this by setting the texture size to 128x128 in the texture browser before applying them. I'll make sure to reread your posts and the FAQ!

Thanks for your patience everyone! :)
