Hi people, I don't know if this forum is dead or not, but I'll post anyways in hope to get an answer. So, I've been struggling with this for some quite time now. I made a map, tested it on my computer (through Files --> Run in VHE) and with HLDS. It worked fine. Then I tried uploading it to my game server but whenever I change to that map the server crashes and needs to be restarted.

So I noticed some errors, which are:

Warning: === LEAK in hull 0 ===

Error:
A LEAK is a hole in the map, where the inside of it is exposed to the
(unwanted) outside region. The entity listed in the error is just a helpful
indication of where the beginning of the leak pointfile starts, so the
beginning of the line can be quickly found and traced to until reaching the
outside. Unless this entity is accidentally on the outside of the map, it
probably should not be deleted. Some complex rotating objects entities need
their origins outside the map. To deal with these, just enclose the origin
brush with a solid world brush

So I tried loading the .pts file, and I found a leak, so I moved the whole map to the center and patched the leaks. And now it's giving me those red scribblings in a place which doesn't have any blocks, entities or we.

In your screenshot, you can see in the camera the aaatrigger texture is leaking out, and so thats probably your leak

and this forum is sorta dead, but not THAT dead

Yep, I pulled it in, still finds leak. The thing is, the map works without lagging, but only if my pistol is pointed to the left side, as soon as I turn my pistol right it starts lagging. Also, is there any other way of finding leaks that isn't following that red line because it's really confusing? Also, when I try to compile my map with skybox around it, VHE just freezes and then I have to shut it down via Task Manager. I have 768 MB of RAM.

Well, you said when you point it to the right side it starts lagging, so theres probably a leak there. And a good method to find leaks is too fill up an area of your map in which you believe may have leaks with a giant block, and then compile your map. If it compiles well, you know the leak is in that area.

I tried that, it compiles fine with no errors, but when I enter the game, it's all messed up, I can only see the void and the sky.
Could I by any chance get your MSN, send you the map for you to see what I'm doing wrong.. ?

Thank you.

Lawl, okay.
I had to make an account for Rapidshare so I uploaded it to filebeam. Hope that's ok, here's the link:

And, this certainly does not help your lag issue:

I don't know what are you pointing on that ss, but everything in that area is patched and sealed, at least in my map on my computer. If not that, then what?

Also, ty for that, didn't even see that two warnings.

Delete the map and start over.

Do you have "snap to grid" turned off, or do you have the grid size set to 1? NOTHING in your map lines up. It's not a surprise you have leaks everywhere.

Snap to grid is on but yeah, it's the big one.

So I should definatly start over?

The map is small and simple. The time it would take you to fix the leaks would be far greater than the time it would take to rebuild the map. It'd probably take you 20-30 mins to fix the leaks, rebuilding the map would take 2-3 mins.
