When I start up my map, it just shuts down. It worked fine until I added all the glass to my map. It's a small map, well I am not that good at describing so here is a pic.

see I have glass all on the floor so people can fall through to the bottom of the level. The whole level is incased in a giant cube. Any idea what I can do to fix this.

I had this same problem once only for me, as soon as I added glass, my level wouldnt load, at all, it would freeze on initializing resources. Once i got rid of a lot of the glass (but I kept some) it worked fine again. I think ingame, source engine has a hard time with a lot of glass so get rid of osme and try again.

I fixed it. All I had to do was change the texture of the glass from already broken, to not broken broken glass texture...if that makes any sense.

It has been a common problem. If you want to have shattered glass to begin with, you have to break them somehow after the map spawns. Otherwise, the engine wouldn't know how to render the already shattered glass surface. [addsig]
