Blahblah-dunno-what-this-part-says (####>####) tell programmer to up VERTEX_BUFFER_SIZE

What does this mean? I'm getting this error when im play-testing my map and it just freezes all the sudden and quits with this error.

From Interlopers error list:

You have too many dynamic vertices. These are points that make up entity brushes (like func_doors) and perhaps also models.
Tie as much of these entity-brushes to either world (de-entify them) or func_detail (the only, non-dynamic entity).
don't be confused with hl1: func_wall should not be used to optimize your map! Instead use func_detail.

I sure wish hl1 had something like func_detail... :tired:

HL 1 had func wall.

HL2 does have func_detail. :cyclops:

I deleted some of entities, and the number went from
33275>32785
To
34478>32785

Uhh, help?

It's being caused by one entity, I'd guess, generating lots of temporary stuff.

I keep deleting entities and solids and it keeps going up, now its at 37756>32785 (or whatever the cap is)

32768, I imagine. I doubt it's in proportion to the entity counts. Use the Big Block Error-Solving Method detailed on the VERC &| RUST.

Carved Brushes: Were removed and rebuilt as uncarved brushes.
Main area for vertex error: A building in the corner of the map. I tore this building down and rebuilt it without all the technical stuff. Error still comes.

I'm not running vis because I'm not compiling 2 hours every time I fix something that causing this vertex error.
