Dear god, I got it. Thanks guys.

Cascade doesn't work. That was the first thing I tried.

How do I use Faber to move the window?

Long story short:

Friend was dragging my MSN messenger window (the buddy list) when my optical mouse jumped and took my list off screen. Now I can't get it back.

I've tried changing my rez and uninstall/reinstalling it, but neither works. I really need to use MSN but now I can't. Anyone know how to retrieve my lost window?

Just got off the server.

Pwnd.

Did that. same problem.

Hmm. The entire little box that is my level is textured in "aaatrigger," the small purple/black lambda symbols.

If I do a normal compile and attempt to load my map, it gets all the way down to the last 2 bars (usually where I enter the game) and CS just totally crashes back to desktop.

If I do an expert compile and attempt to load my map, it begins starting the server and crashes there with the previously mentioned "Abnormal program termination."

Thats the first time I attempted to load the map, after finally getting a full compile, with no visible errors.

Umm. [Smiles and Nods]

Anyway to fix this?

Now that, hopefully, the compile issues and the saved file issues are gone, we have a new one. Anytime I try and load my map ("test"), I get the following error:

I don't know if this is compile related, or not, but here are my compile settings just in case:

I decided to uninstall/reinstall.

Valve Hammer Editor 3.4
Zoners HL Tools 3.3

I installed ZHLT's to my "Hammer/Tools" folder. I also limited my .wads to just 8, as per the Worldcraft/Hammer Setup Tutorial.

I just compiled the map and recieved no errors. I'll test it as soon as I post this. =P

Its too late to do much as I'm going to bed now (its 1:53AM).

I changed my RMF directory to "Valve Hammer Editor/Maps"

I don't. My tools are in the "Valve Hammer EditorTools"

I checked over every single file path and they are all correct. I changed my compile settings to look as close to that as I can:

No-no, thats not what I meant.

I'm just use to mapping Jedi Academy on GTK Radiant.

I'd like to use Hammer to map for Counter-Strike 1.6

I haven't a clue. I'm use to mapping for Jedi Academy.

I installed Hammer 3.4 and the latest Zone tool set.
Configured my game via your online guides here.

I have touched nothing else.

Oh, "Dilegent."

Fancy word.

Good luck with that map.

Some of that was jibberish to me, but I'll say this:

I installed Steam to Program Files/Steam, not Valve/Steam

And as the map name issue: I named my map "testing," not after my email address. So I'll assume that it is indeed a Bacth issue. Anyway of fixing this?

[Also, thanks for replying. :)]

I appologize if this exact topic has already come-up before.

I'm new to mapping for Half-Life and related mods. I've gone though setting up Valve Hammer Editor 3.4 (because I don't normally trust betas). I've also downloaded Zones compile tools. I've gone through your excellent site and worked around the tutorials, but the same problem comes up everytime I try to compile, or open a (supposedly) saved file.

I have congifured everything properly (for CS 1.6), of that I feel sure.

Problem 1: Compile errors

When I attempt to compile a map, such as the example map from Andy's guide, I get this compile error:

My compile (CSG, BSP, VIS, RAD) is set to all "Normal," and nothing more.

Problem 2: Opening a Saved File

My second problem is if I close the map I'm working on, and then try "open" that exact same map again, I get this error:

"For your information, 1702130524 solids were not loaded due to errors in the file."

After I click "ok," a load bar begins, and Hammer crashes moments later.

_______________________________

I applogoize if this seems like a lot of issues, but I'd really like to get into mapping for CS and this community seems very friendly and helpful. I just hope someone can assist me with these errors so I can start building my own frag-worlds for the CS community.
