I made a map in HL but when I run my map in HL, instead the engine loads my map, it crashes in OpenGL video mode and the original maps when I load it, it worked ! But if I load my map in Software video mode, it works fine. So I need your help. I need my map to work in OpenGL... Thx :)

I can't understand a single thing you said in the first sentence. :

The engine loads the map, but Half-Life doesn't? What's that supposed to mean?

My map doesn't load it completely. Instead, it crashes only in OpenGL mode and the original maps loads fine. Sorry for the first sentence. :D

Oh... well, I'm not sure what to say. It could really be anything, and I don't have much to work with. Any error messages after the crash? Anything wrong in the compile log, maybe?

How big is your BSP file size?

To srry: There is nothing wrong in the compile log. Every messages I saw is fine.

To funjob: The map I am currently playing is about 1.06 MB. The map doesn't load it completely, instead, it crashes in OpenGL but when I tried to load the map in Software, it works fine.

Did you try in Direct3D? It's nearly the same as OpenGL in the looks only compitible with other graphic cards.
I myself have a similar problem- No map runs in OpenGL.

I wouldn't suggest playing maps in Direct3D unless you absolutely have to, though. Decals won't appear, and the lighting looks all blotchy and ugly.

Outdated graphics card drivers?

Decals do appear in D3D, well most off them them. They don't appear on moving object. Lighting is mostly the same as in OpenGL, exept for a few places. Take it from me it's nearly the same, I've been using it for a long time, and before I used OpenGL.

It's nearly the same, at list on my mechine.

Update your drivers!

I had this problem ages ago and that fixed it for me.

Edit: Didn't see Ant's post.

I do have the most recent drivers, or at least I did a month ago, and that isn't "ages". Maybe it's just my video card. :
