Is any entity out in the void?

You have a brush with a complaner plane and a brush outside the world(Out side the area that you can build things in it) You will find an explanation somewhere in here- http://www.slackiller.com/tommy14/errors.htm -they are the first in the brush section!

Tommy's page is really outdated, Leak-Free is much more recent, and Tommy assisted in making it. (I designed the leet gfx for the forumz too~)

Invalid Solid for you, mr. mustang67. Alt-P and see if anything pops up.

That's great, I always thought that Tommy's page was nigh impossible to browse

no entities are outside the world. this map is only to test somthing but there is a, ehhh......sky box : and there arent any leaks

Ok... go like this:

With your map open, click Map, Go To Brush Number

Then for each one of your entitys... delete the brush.

like this...

Entity 0, Brush 122: A 'Unknown Class' @(0,0,0) has a coplanar plane at

So type in the Entity 0
And type 122 in the brush spot.

Then press ok to highlight it and then delete it. Do it to each one of those that are in your compile log.

ive had troubles with sky boxes recently, whenever you look at it it can cause an error for some unknown reason. Wierd, could be one of the reasons

The problem is that the invalid solids stretch out to infinity, so their planes become outside of the world.

theres no invalad solid sturctures, and if i delete all of thoes brushes wont i have to remake what is lost :

Chack if there is any brush in the range of 64 units from the eaged of the grid!

Yes they would be lost but it's better than losing the whole map.

the whole map......deleting all the brushes that "outside of the world" as the compile log says then i will end up deleting the whole map. :

Why has nobody pointed out that he should be using ZHLT yet?

I know what happened, this appenned to me. Did you get an "invalid structure" error when you tested for problems? If you fixed it part of the fixed structure has been thrown outside the world, or the mapping grid making it impossible to retreive without deleting the structure itself.

theres no invalad structures...one of the errored brushes was even a box that was not altered in any way :

Did it have an error in the problems check?

i have no idea whats going on but i compiled the map with ZHLT's vis only, i still used qbsp2 and qcsg, but the map works now :

ill get a screenshot later
(and the bsp file does not have rad compiled with it, "fullbright")

I've found the problem. It seems you've tried to create a cylinder with 8 faces, on a small brush with measures about 4 units, by 4 units.. Since the brush was very small, it was unable to create a cylinder causing trouble. As you can see in the snapshot it appears to have more faces. (2 faces per side.) This accident can happen very easy, especially, when you use the cylinder tool, then go to make a sqaure brush, but for get to change the option back.By the way, I'm extremely impressed with the tank, it's unreal!

So ya try that, and tell me if that solved your problem!

Oh ya, and to fix it.. just replace that brush with a properly made square.

i need to get better textures.....and i think the main turrett is a bit off there should be a smaller block-cone thing that is between the barell and the main part

meh... Looks good to me, and if it looks good to me, then its really, really good!

Just needs better texture aglienment!

See... told ya you wouldn't have to delete the whole map...

You would have just deleted that brush.
