Now, I get an error that says "Cannot find gameinfo.txt in C:Program."

Any helpful hints? I've checked the Half-Life 2 folder, and there is indeed a file called "GameInfo.txt", so I don't know what to do.

Do not run Steam from the compiling process. Start up steam manually and run the map from there.

Thanks for the help,

Actually...What exactly do you mean by running steam manually, not from the compiler? How would you go about doing this?

Alright, I looked around a bit and found this thing for compiling maps using Steam, and I'm at the substitution part, but when I try to enter the path, it says that I've entered an "incorrect number of parameters - FilesValvesSteamSteamAppsbloodsent"

The exact command: subst s: C:Program FilesValveSteamSteamAppsbloodsent

I've tried removing files and a different substitute drive name, but nothing's working, and it's driving me insane.

This is because DOS does not like spaces. There's an easy enough way around it.

Simply type this into the command line:

subst s: "C:Program FilesValveSteamSteamAppsbloodsent"

The quotes are a little "Use Exact Pathname" command.

Actually...What exactly do you mean by running steam manually, not from the compiler? How would you go about doing this?

By clicking on the steam icon and choosing play games.

Also you might want to change your sky to office or dust etc as its set to wasteland which is black basically and can make maps look bad and is annoying after compiling for ages to find your map has blackness anyway you go to map properties and skyname and then type a sky name e.g. office

those brushes that are listed are too close to the edge of the grid. move them in some. unless you carved wrong or did some faulty vertex manipulation... if thats the case, delete those brushes and remake them.

AND

you're using zoners for csg, and the original quake tools for the rest. configure hammer properly so that you use zoners for all the build programs.

How did you miss the big blob of Errors in the middle of your log??? I'm pretty sure most of you people with problems can fix them by looking at your logs.
