Make sure your filenames are entered properly, and make sure there are NO SPACES in your filenames.

Did you change ANYTHING besides the playable part of the map?

most likely that you've opened the map in a different mode. y'know, when you load a map and it asks you what game FDG to load. try fiddling with that. it worked for me before.

what game FDG to load.

It's FGD. Stands for Forge Game Data.

Sorry, it just seems like everyone spells it wrong. And I like showing off that I know what it stands for .

nobody likes a smart arse

what is the maps name? you may have some invalid characters.

no its not the name double checked that multiple times

True, true.

You said "map not found on server". This is often caused by an error in the compile somehow, or if the map gets moved. (Re-)Check the compile log, and post it here.

I do; it'd be hypocritical otherwise

Check the compile log.

or if u have a surface with no texture... i was having this problem until i added a texture or two... try that and see if it works

k guys figured it out i had an aaa texture and a clip texture on a very smal l piece in map i didnt see it i new it would be somthing simple its all working now just just for future any one that doesnt know Do Not PUT AAAtrigger OR CLIP TEXTURES ON BRUSH ENTITIES!!!!

thanks for all ur help guys cant believe i overlooked somthing so simple

doh

Do Not PUT AAAtrigger OR CLIP TEXTURES ON BRUSH ENTITIES!!!!

You're right about keeping CLIP off of brush entities, but AAATrigger can go on brush entities, and sometimes world brushes without harm. It's on world brushes in some Valve levels that are fully compiled. (Look really carefully in 'On A Rail')

ur right man thanks
