Coplanar face, but brush doesnt exist Created 18 years ago2006-01-21 11:42:55 UTC by Tetsu0

Ok As you read from the Topic, When i compile, theres a brush with a coplanar face, but when i go to Map>Go to Brush Number, the Brush doesnt exist. I read through a forum post, and it said something about deleting an origin, and i had a func_wall with an origin (it was a door_rotating but i changed my mind) so i deleted the origin and re-assigned that to a func_wall.

I download HLFIX, which sopossedly fixes these sorts of errors before actually compiling the map, i switched the HLFIX to #2 in line in the expert compiler. I THINK i set it up right. But im getting a messgae "Access is denied"

heres the log:

any suggestions?

Do you have ANY XENO_6FLY textures in the map whatsoever? If you do delete them and try recompiling the map, its always more trustworthy to do a manual check rathre than let the program scan itself for you.

alt+p -> press fix

if it doesnt shows it in the map problems,try covering all your complicated objects with AAAtrigger 1by1 and compiling 1by1.So that you can find the object which causes the error.(or check out the destination of it if you know how(549, -1847, -32)),When you find it,try clipping the some part of the object,or delete it and do it again.Clipping works most for me.

there is no command called hlfix_exe built in to Hammer. You need to specify the entire path and executable name when running custom commands. For example, if hlfix.exe is in "c:compiletools", then your hlfix command would read:
c:compiletoolshlfix.exe "c:program filesvalve hammer editormapsnexus"

oops,wrong post delete me

oh well..
I did fix that problem, i did the replace textures thing, but instead of replacing the textures, i marked them all then deleted them, i can always re-make them later. i really just wanted to test compile it.

some more problems surfacing in my map right now:

the conveyor on my waterfall.. the texture goes in 3 directions.. none of them are correct...
Vis doesnt like me

ill upload my map to 'unfinished stuff'
it'll be called nexus , and ill edit this post with a link when im done

Link to map = http://www.twhl.co.za/mapvault_map.php?id=3650

Your scroll texture is rotated the wrong way. Use the Tex application tool to rotate the textures on the waterfall faces. SCROLL textures always scroll from left to right, so the textures should be rotated 90deg clockwise to scroll down.

rotation for each face may be different depending on if the texture is aligned to to World or Face, so check that as well

sweet, thanks
