Please Help - VIS crashes when compiling Created 14 years ago2009-05-24 22:00:13 UTC by pimpedz

Hello, I am recently getting rather close to a playable build of my map. When compiling, VIS crashes as soon as it begins, without reason. I am not sure of why this is occuring, any help would greatly be appreciated. As to clear up any misconceptions about an earlier post, I am NOT using max distance, and vis is set to full.

Errr... remove that hint/skip-brush, you clearly don't understand how hint/skip-brushes work.

And you should think about turning small details into func_wall.

The brushwork is very sloppy but I guess it's too late to fix that now, same thing for NULLing unseen faces, those should have been your top priorities from brush one but I guess it would take too much time to fix it now.

Alright, I will try doing that and then get back to you.
