I'm getting this error when I try to compile my map. When I go to the brush numbers stated it takes me to a completely empty part of the map. Solutions please?

According to Tommy14's list of mapping and compiling errors, you have a damaged brush. Use the Go To Brush Number option to find the brush and replace it.

I can't believe that site is still up and running. Holy crap.

First go to the brush (find it by number), then delete it. Even though it takes you to a completely empty part of the map, the problem brush still gets selected. Just delete it and continue mapping.

Okay so now I type in the brush number and it brings me to a fairly big ceiling brush. Any explanation to why this didn't happen before?

(BTW yes I deleted it and now the map works, thanks people)

Maybe an edge or a vertex was mangled inproperly somehow. You can sometimes spot this in the editor you're using if a part of your brush looks like it's sucking in itself, kind of like this:

(This example is maybe a bit exaggerated since they may be small enough to be hard to spot at first.)

Usually brushes become problematic through vertex manipulation when certain planes become malformed (say, a square plane where a single vertex gets moved perpendicularly, thus causing the plane to become non-flat, which is a big no-no). Some other actions can cause it too under certain circumstances, such as skewing or the clipping tool. Another possible cause is concave brushes, which the engine can't handle. Think making a flat pac-man shape out of a single brush. You would have to divide the shape into two (or more) brushes such that any one brush never had a vertex with an internal angle of 180 degrees or more.

I'm probably forgetting some of the proper mathematical terms.

Hasn't anyone mentioned Alt+P which opens the check for problems dialog? That would probably pick up bad brushes before you compile.
Penguinboy PenguinboyHaha, I died again!

Yes, Alt+P is usually pretty good about picking that stuff up. Usually.
