fatal error? Created 19 years ago2005-03-09 03:12:14 UTC by SaBeRwOlF

when i go to compile i keep getting a window that pops up saying

"could not find filesystem dll to load"

ne ideas?

i'm a beginner so could you explain in detail...
thx very much

You're recieving this error post-compile (once the compile has finished) or pre-compile (before any of the compile programs run?)

post compile

Post-compile, I'm almost certain.

Simplest solution: don't tick "Run game after compile" and play your map manually after it's done (see the Running a BSP tutorial).

ok maybe it is pre compile because now it wont bring up the program log... when before it did

...then i get the error

That's post-compile. Do what I said before. Also, download Zoner's tools and use those (hlcsg, hlbsp, hlvis, hlrad) instead of the Quake tools that you're using ? see the News page for the link.

where can i go to actually get .wads that work
now after every compile i get an error stating
still... "could not filesystem dll to load"
i can get around that by checking the "dont run game" box and go through CS manually. but then i get

"cannot open es_trinity.wad"

when i try to run the map through the console

Well... remove es_trinity.wad from your texture list.

Or...if you have a decent version of ZHLT, you can use -wadautodetect or something to remove any un-used WADs. I think it should be on automatically.
