I used to get these errors way back. Try getting rid of the complex brushes (i.e. Cyliners, VM shapes, etc), then compile. If it works, then put them back in again. Thats how i did it anyway and i worked! Theres probably a more professional 'expert mapper' version though!

Okey I se you have look on tommy's site but I only check, have you read this about MAX_PATCHES? I think you can have the problem here.

Or post your log.file so we can look on it.

I sometimes get plain old max_leaf errors, but not leaf_patch errors. Don't make your maps too complex. That's my solution!
m0p m0pIllogical.

Well, I would suggest just parts of it, not the full thing as it can lead to even more problems. Just make the stuff u REALLY need a prefab.

Jax,
Having followed a couple of your posts I think it might be time to have a good look at what you are trying to achieve?
A newer larger computer will not fix a difficult map.
Try this little Read Me and see if it answers any of your problems.

Have you tried changing your chop?

I fixed this in the problems vault... no clue why but grouping a group caused this error.

split your map, or make it smaller
