i have made my map, and saved it onto my hard-drive. when i press F9, the expert box comes up, and then i set the drop down box to 'Half - Life (full)', because that is what i configured valve hammer for. when i click the go button on the expert box, the console opens on half life, with the half life bqackground, and i get the following message:

Map Change Failed. Map 'main' Not Found on Server.

'main' is the name of my map. i have made levels for counterstrike, and never had problems like this, anyone know what is goin worng??

thanks for any help,

That usually means there's been a problem with compiling the map (or moving it), and that's usually because of the configuration. I can't remember how I set up expert mode, but I noticed now that it's possible the setup can get 'stuck' when you change configurations.

So.... presuming the problem is with the config...

in Expert mode, the first FOUR commands might look like paths (e.g. 'c:program filesworldcraftzhlthlbsp.exe'). Click each one in turn, then click the Cmds button to the right, and select one of the 'program' commands based on the filename in the path. For example, 'hlbsp.exe' (or 'qbsp.exe') is the 'BSP Program'. The only one that isn't obvious is 'hlrad.exe' (or 'qrad.exe'), which is the 'LIGHT Program'.

Replace the LAST command with 'Game program' from the Cmds list.

That might work. If not, post a copy of your compile log.
