OK

I have a *.vmt file that I've created from scratch. I added a brush to the map and now it no longer creates the bsp file. Below is my hammer log:

heh.. the log tells you....
but if you cant figure it out, scratch and sniff below to reveal the answer.

Error: displacement found on a(n) func_detail entity - not supported
NO DISPLACEMENTS ON FUNC_DETAIL SILLY
and if you're not using black background... oops...

Yes I know.

But the only thing I have added displacement to is a brush.........I don't have any func_details in my map (at least I don't think I do - is there a quick show feature?)

Find the displacement surfaces you've used, select the brushes, and click the 'to World' button just to make sure then.

OK

I've corrected the displacement problem and it's not showing any errors in the compile window but it hangs when it gets to this point:

** Executing...
** Command: Copy File
** Parameters: "C:Program FilesSteamSteamAppso_lachesis_osourcesdk_contentcstrikemapsrcTurnpiketoday.bsp" "c:program filessteamsteamappso_lachesis_ocounter-strike sourcecstrikemapsTurnpiketoday.bsp"

And then just sits there - is this still the same problem or is there a log I can view to see what's happening?

lol no it hasn't hung at that point (I hope not anyway!) but you need a command to run the game now (or you could just open CS yourself and run it!)

Thanks

Like a smacktard I had the 'don't run game after compiling' ticked. Slaps forehead!!
