Problem compiling

I've been having many annoyances concerning this "test" map I'm working on, could anyone tell me why? Or possibly compile it for me, I'd be REALLY grateful.

Here's the log:

Thing is, the .WAD file exists... Could anyone possibly help? I could try to supply more information, and even the .map if need be.

Have you checked all your paths, like definitely? Sometimes it gets a bit fussy. I'm trying to remember what advice is written in the FAQ, too...


It doesn't say much. Uh... something. Guys! Help!

The file is located and accessed by hammer, but during compilation using the .bat or through Valve Hammer I get that error. I think it may be from my side, if anyone could compile it for me, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks for any help you guys could offer.

Sraw: I later realized that, and removed the .WAD file that was located on D: from the Textures tab, leaving only one .WAD... Still an error minus the part containing D:....halflife.wad. You could take a look at one of the pictures I posted earlier for the result.

Hm... Trying to Run with Valve Hammer freezes the editor at LeafThread, weird. Oh and the Halflife.WAD's still there...
Checking for Problems shows no errors. I suppose it's from Valve Hammer, not the map?

Map information if need be, small map, but I like it:

code
Solids: 430
Faces: 2678
PointEntities: 119
SolidEntities: 29
Unique Textures: 71
Texture Memory: 2.19 MB
WADs used: G:\half-life\valve\halflife.wad


Going off for the night, 4:30 AM been working (mostly just experimenting and testing) on it for two days or so thanks for the assistance. :)

Don't compile from Hammer, use a batch-file like superjers tutorial tells you.

He has been, I assume he tried the VHE method to see if it worked instead.

I'm using the ZHLT compiler with the .bat as in the site's guide, VHE's is freezing Valve Hammer.

Anyway, I think I fixed the previous ".WAD" error, this is what you do, move the .WADs to the same drive as the one the compiler is on, it should fix it.

Thing is, the compiler is still giving me the "The system cannot find the file specified". This is the problem I'm having trouble with, anyone have any solution to this problem? I'm in desperate need to play my map... I even made a new one, still the same problem, seems the problem is from the compiler or my computer.

Damn it.

At the end of the compilation process it'll say press any key to continue. My guess is that you did so and then that error popped up.
If this is the case, you can manually copy/paste the .bsp file that was created into c:/program files/steam/cstrike/maps... or wherever the maps file happens to be located on your comp. Then open up counterstrike and start a new game with your map.


This may not be the case, but I have a feeling it is.

Well, that's part of the compilation, it does not appear after I press "Any key to continue" as it should normally say...

I copied the .bsp file to the /map folder, yet it would not appear in the maps list.

Speaking of which, TheBunker.pts is 0 KB, and TheBunker4.wic is 1 KB.

I tried copying the map to the CS 1.6 client, the map does appear and tries to load but then I get a:

Fatal Error: Mod_NumForName: G:/Half-life Team Fortress 1/cstrike not found. ((This was my old folder which I then removed))

I copied the existing folder to that location it asked for, yet it still gives me the same error. I mean, why does it even want that certain folder, only my maps are doing this.

Note: I'm making a map for Sven-Coop by the way.

If you can't see it in the maps list, why not just type map "mapname" in console?

And who plays sven coop anymore They ruined it with 4.0, since nobody bothered to update anymore, but 3.0 was fun

I'm playing on 3.0 with three friends, pretty fun, won't download another Sven Coop till 4.1 comes out.

While using the 1.6 Counter-Strike client, them map does appear and attempt to load before getting said error and crashing to desktop. The rest of the maps (That I did not make) work perfectly fine.

Err... Could anyone possibly compile the map for me please?

I think I fixed it, I will post after I check all those objects. Problem was with one "turret gun", not the monster_ ones. And although it is still displaying System cannot find the file specified, I just copy the .bsp from the ZHLT compiler's folder and place it in the Maps folder.

Will post more in a while.
