old compile map problem Created 20 years ago2004-03-23 06:09:34 UTC by Jax

ok, i added a room and corridor to my map... i go and compile it and when it compiles it just comes up in the map as the last compile, no new corridor or anything! plz help!

Well, start by temporarily renaming your map and see what happens...

Good advice. It's probably not compiling at all.

i have encountered this problem but i cant remember how i fixed just to let you know you are not alone

same here.

It happens whenever the compile doesnt create a bsp.
IE, when it doesnt compile.
IE, when your map sucks and have a megaerror

Whatever the problem is, It's certinaly not compiling. I'd agree with Zombie today.

I've killed a compile before simply with a leaky map, which swamped the compiler in it's verbose state. When I fixed the leak, the compiler survived. Try big-blocking your map and trying re-compiling bits of it.

Of course, it could still be something else at fault: unless it's some painfully simple human error (like spelling the compile path wrong), the only other answer is to back-track your steps untill you can compile successfully.

ya what i usually do is delete everything since the last time you successfully compiled. but this is an extremely bad idea since you put all the hard work into it.I remember I did a tank, and had the problem - I had to delete it, but now instead of carving brushes I clip them it works alot better, I only carve when I absolutly have too an... anyways this probly isn't helpin' you- hehehe, I always do that- I talk to much,
later guys.

I ALMOS..sry caps was on.
ahem. i almost always get this problem.
but the way i fix it is by loging out/restarting my computer.
then it useually works.

ok I'll keep that in mind..
