HELP!!!!

Abridged by Seventh

Wow, that's a heavy bunch of errors!

Coplanar faces are faces that share the same plane. You should make them one face. The best solution is to recreate the brushes that cause these problems. In the menu, go to Map->Go to brush number... Then fill in the Entity number and the Brush number. You can see these numbers in the error.

Such bad constructed brushes can also cause other problems like the 'outside world' error. Fix all these bad brushed and compile again. I'd like to warn you about the use of the vertex tool. It's a very powerfull tool but one must know it before one can use it without causing problems. Every face must be planar, no two faces may share the same plane, and the brush must be convex, not concave.

if oyu made a 1 unit bruhs and rotate it you gwet the same error

Since the vertexes aren't on the grid, and during the compile process they are put on the nearest grid point, wich causes faces to be coplanar sometimes. Or other similar errors.

Fix - dont create brushes outside of the grid!!

Error: Entity 19, Brush 1, Side 1: plane with no normal
Fix - you've probably vertex edited the brush and its gone a bit wonky, delete and remake it

Error: Entity 19, Brush 1, Side 1: has a coplanar plane at (3165, 3310, 3664), texture {GELAENDER
Fix - invalid brush from vertex manipulation again. Look for any sides of the brush that have a vertex splitting them (e.g. a cube with one of the sides having a vertex in the middle of it, take a house shape and move the 'roof' vertex down till it forms a flat face and you'll get this error)

Fix - Brush is invalid, which is why values are insanely high. Delete and remake.
