Error: File read failure

can anyone help me? One thing can be:
Wadinclude list :
[zhlt.wad]

I do not know where zhlt.wad comes from, I have not specified it anywhere. (I had before).

Here is my options:

Batch compiler is too complex. Have you tried using only the programs 8wad thing?

Edit the wads.txt and remove ZHLT if you didnt use any special textures.

This seems to be a simple problem. Any solutions?

I don't see what might cause problems here.
All it says is that a file is not loaded.

Is the path to the file thats about to be compiled correct? Are tool paths correct?

Error: File read failure

I cannot find anything wrong. Anyone?

Error File read failure can be any file you're using in this compilation.
Try the more spammy console write out.

Set the Developer Compilation Console to Warning level.

It worked when I changed the texdata to 65536.

64MB texture data?!
Why so much?

Random number

Just to have it as info if any one else needs it, can you write down these:

1. How many WADs did you use, how big are they
2. How much textures were used in the map (you can see this in map properties)

I used 3 wad files, all of them are together 24,85 MB. Texture memory: 268 textures (26.5 MB).

Thats probably why. Thanks for the info.
