HI guy so here is my prob i play cs and i have made a map with the halflife.wad from another folder that is valve/valve/halflife.wad the thing is that all my other wads are in the valve/cstrike folder and when ever i add a texture from the halflife.wad and i open the map in cs i get an error saying

"critical error valv.wad"

and this is because the wad and i have fixed it before but i dont remmember how so if some one know how to fix this error plz reply :)

Because valve.wad is in the valve folder, and not in the cstrike folder where it needs to be.

You get the error because counter strike can't find the wad.
Copy it and put it along with all the other counter strike wads

is this added to the batch file??
because i use the batch file to compile
Posted 16 years ago2008-01-13 20:23:09 UTC Post #243366
Yeah, you can add it to a batch file. Here is what mine would look like with that parameter.
@echo off
"C:toolszhlt 3.2.1hlcsg" -estimate -high -texdata 17824 -lightdata 17824 -wadinclude WADNAME.wad %1
"C:toolszhlt 3.2.1hlbsp" -estimate -texdata 17824 -lightdata 17824 -high %1
"C:toolszhlt 3.2.1hlvis" -estimate -texdata 17824 -lightdata 17824 -high %1
"C:toolszhlt 3.2.1hlrad" -estimate -texdata 17824 -lightdata 17824 -high %1
pause

I get an error when i try compiling it

"Error creating batch script
Error: Backup path is not set or invalid"

i fixed the error but is there eny way to get the bsp to automaticly get in the real folder??

Use my Compilator. Made only for HL mapping. Its easy to set up, easy to wadinclude.

Go for options/setup/variables and set the output to your cstrike/maps folder.
The Backup will create a backup of your map files each time you compile. To get it work you have to set its path in the options/setup/stage paths, like hlfix.exe, csg.exe, bsp.exe, vis.exe, rad.exe,...

Unfortunatelly these junks goes there with the bsp, but I dont know any compiler that doesnt do the same.

In fact, no. The only file that goes into the output folder, like the .bsp, is the .pts file, which is used to find leaks.

All the other files created by the compile tools, like, prt, lin, p0, p1, p2 and what not, is left behind the .map folder (the folder where you export the .map file from withing Hammer).
