No, [ and ] really do change the grid size. You can see the current grid size in the status bar at the bottom. One unit is approx. one inch.

You can zoom in and out with the + and - keys.

Are you sure the res file is causing the problem, and its not just your map?


Also, don't put the .res file in the .res file. You could be causing an infinite recursive nastymare (IRNM).

It's easy to make a BSP that crashes servers. It happens all the time. Like if you have too many entities or other random things.

Please make sure its not your map -- because I think that's the most likely cause.

Are there any warnings or errors in the compile log?
Do you have a lot of entities?

If neither, try compiling only part of your map and see if that part works.

You should be able to narrow it down to the problem.

well, i gess i forgot to add the zhlt.wad so i added that into my directory of textures and recompiled and found that the error type thing in my .log wasnt there anymore so i have to wait and see if my map works now.
