in Another question ( a real one) Post #29016
Sorry to be asking a question every two minutes, but I am very close to haveing a successful compile, okay so here is the problem:
everything runs perfectly, no problems at all, until the last part where I am already in half life and its about to launch the map when I get a pop saying "Error: PutClientInServer: No info_player_start on level"
The map i am trying to compile is a tutorial one, I have rea dthe entire tutorial as well as the introduction to compiling. I have added an entity and when I right click on it and click on "properties" it says "class: info_player_start" So what is the problem? I have an entity where the player starts, but maybe I am doing it wrong.

I know a bunch of other people have had this problem but their solutions haventreally pertained to me so any help in any would be great thanks.
Thankyou

Hello, I am new to mapping for HL. I was using your Beggining tutorial when I noticed that the box in the tutorial picture is pink/purple and my box (3d view) was clear. I dont know if this is a problem, I played around with making it a solid brush but still, why is my box not pink?

My second question is that when i went to compile in the tutorial, I had an error. I know everyone has errors but I think mine is really basic but I just can't find what I did wrong. Here is a note from the compile stuff, the error is at the bottom:

The command failed. Windows reported the error:

Also, one last thing, now that we are all on Steam, I am confused about adding textures from Program Files/Steam/SteamApps/etc. as opposed to adding textures from C:/Sierra/Half-Life

If you can answer any of these it would be very helfpful thanks a ton
