all my problems were found in prefab i downloaded, deleted them from my map and started working again, thanks (and waiting while compiling did work too)
2009 Mar 13 at 00:07 UTC
the title could speak for itself, but i will explain;


useally you press "fix all" right? well most of time anyways, i myself try find the problem before resolving to it, this time i resolved to that option so.. when i press fix all, i check did they go away, no, still gives me the same errors.

compiling the map crashes, got all vis,rad,csg,bsp ON while compiling, even when its "not responding" on taskmaster, i end hlrad and hlvis as i assume its not doing anything else than beeing dead, the compiling comes to end tho in hammer. Ingame it looks like this:

so it didnt do .rad or .vis, but its somehow playable. and thats about how big the map is, as in no, its not big.. not @ all grr

what can i do? had this nonable to fix all problems on another maps also.

map lag in Hammer Mapping
map has sky as it should be.. i guess

Quote:

A)
---------------- <- sky
[][][][][][][][] H
[][][][][][][][] o
[][][][][][][][] u
[][][][][][][][] s
[][][][][][][][] e
[][][][][][][][] s
----------------- ground

B)
---------------- <- sky
|---------------| <- sky walls "pillars"
[][][][][][][][] H
[][][][][][][][] o
[][][][][][][][] u
[][][][][][][][] s
[][][][][][][][] e
[][][][][][][][] s
----------------- ground


AKA space between buildings and sky, or sky going over roofs.
big difference? using A method atm.

Gave up with the box over the map as sky ideal

p.s: first time hear of this NULL, using typical halflife textures.

map lag in Hammer Mapping
i would never play my map with bots with all the waypoints required to set em up and so on. I just would be happy to have my maps suitable any server. I read the "thingy" but who knows will it help me or not

map lag in Hammer Mapping
i made few maps so far and they all lag when tryed out. They are compiled with .vis .rad .bsp .csg . I noticed it happens useally when there is large area infront of me ingame. Could this be maybe fixed at valve hammer > map properties > max viewable distance, or could there be more into it, my friend came to my server and tested these recent maps. All normal maps (de_dust2 etc.)works like dream on my server, its just my own maps. Friend said i fixed this lag problem once, but it must had been years ago

Or maybe all this could be because im compiling a map and its taking forever and sometimes it crashed also.

it seems fine to me. it should be normal, when u go inside somewhere "tunnel" its dark, but its not, just as bright everywhere, and i should had known Night was night its always the most obvious one

SRAW said:
name u want and type it in map environment without the cl_
that i knew already

its just this full brightness that annoys me now.
