I know that it says what this error is in one of the tutorials, but it is leading to some other wierd error

and then when i run my map....

This happens after the game switches to the console, then after about 2 sec, it jumps back to the start screne with this thing in front.

First things first, get rid of the wad files that "contain 0 used textures", as that's probably the reason the surfaces are messed up. Restart hammer. I can't tell whether this map is just architecture and relies on fullbright and the origin, but if that's the case then shove some entities in. Mkae sure nothings going out of the boundaries of the map as well, as this could be what it means by "surface extents". [addsig]

You get problems if you build within about 64 units from the edge of the grid. I think it's something to do with brushes expanding for a while during the compile, and then it would moan because your map is out of the boundary.

The only thing i have found to make that error stop is i removed a tree i was making. Is it the fact that i made one part as the func_illusionary. And after it was done, i just coppied and rotated it?

Does coppying and rotating a brush tied to an entity cause this kinda error?

I am nowhere near the bounds of the map, and i havent created the light env yet due to siplicity of compiling an outdoor map with out any lights untill it is all set.

ok, correct what you are able to 1st.

for all the error's it actually succeeded in making it all the way to rad.

put some lights in it.

secondly, a surface extent error, means you have a texture stretched to much, it doesn't have to be one you did either, it could be one you clipped the edge off of and you damned sure don't have to see it to have this error.

make sure you have no stretches over say???? 5-ish, i try to never exceed 2.

do these 2 first, then lets look at the compile log once more.

I've come across that error before. In order to get a map to compile, you'll need an entity such as a player start, otherwise it won't work. Don't ask why, it just doesn't

And some versions of ZHLT won't compile with RAD unless you have at least 1 light in there somewhere (not texture based either, 1 proper light entity will do the trick).

And yeah, wut Orpheus said for the bad surface extents
