(yes i know the title says three but i had more questions )

Thanks!

let me give an example: if i want to load a save of gm_construct while im on gm_construct, it doesn't work. but if im on gm_flatgrass and load the same save of gm_construct it works. but if i try to load a save of gm_flatgrass while on gm_flatgrass it doesn't work. its not just on construct and flatgrass, its on every map.

everytime i want to load a save the game says that there's a lua problem

this is the error:

gamemodes/sandbox/gamemode/save_load.lua:78: attempt to call global 'Player' (a string value)
1. LoadGModSave - gamemodes/sandbox/gamemode/save_load.lua:78
2. v - gamemodes/sandbox/gamemode/save_load.lua:94
3. unknown - lua/includes/modules/hook.lua:96

if you have any idea please help!

Edit: the saves only work if i load them from a diffrent map

It finally compiled properly! Thank you so much!

I'm not sure where i can find the compile settings.

As for the vmf file: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1qkGUmlKR188nfP_GPjtoTTv1-3DmceuU/view?usp=drive_link

I have sent the whole compile log.

Here is my Hammer++ configuration:

I've looked online about the 'GameData' key, and tried some solutions but none of them worked.

I've recently installed Hammer++ and set it up for Half-Life 2, But every time i compile the map, the bsp file doesn't show up and the game doesn't run. I've tried changing all of the directories to the Half-Life 2 files instead of the Source SDK 2013 Singeplayer ones and reinstalling Hammer++, but nothing.

thank you so much!

i tried the zhlt options and the window turns invisible, the texture isnt see-through or it turns black and slightly see-through.

i'm making a map for sven co-op and i added a window to a dark hallway, but the texture fullbrights. i'm using the newest jack editor version.
i tried all of the render modes and it doesnt work.

PLEASE HELP IF YOU CAN!
