 Re: map wont load in-game
Posted by SnowmanDev on Wed Apr 26th at 11:22pm 2006

ok guys i've noticed that not many ppl look at any posts and this would be my third post and no im not trying to rack them up i just want help.

anyway my problem is that my map will NOT load in the engine at all, now it worked last nite and now it wont, i added some stuff like an npc_spawer made some buildings taller etc... then it didnt work so i went back changed EVERYTHING to the way it exactly was and still my map will not load, i dont get any error msgs or anything it just closes hl2 without even getting to a console ...

ok list of things i've tried ...

1 renaming my map
2 copy/paste into new map new name
3 going over everything checking for errors
4 compiling certain areas
5 checking each post and trying those answers

and to my suprise NONE of them worked smiley thing is i can load any other map up like the sdk maps or the actual game just none of my maps,
when i do a expert run in a window after compiling i get a console window as usual and it says ... game.dll loaded for "counterstrike" ... now im not sure if this is a problem.

i'll post my compile log anyway see if you guys can spot something i cant ...


** Executing...
** Command: "c:program filessteamsteamappssn0wm3nsourcesdkbinvbsp.exe"
** Parameters: -sw -dev -console -allowdebug -game "c:program filessteamsteamappsSourceModsTCOTD" +map "mansion"

Valve Software - vbsp.exe (Jan 2 2006)
VBSP: Unknown option "-sw"

Command line: "c:program filessteamsteamappssn0wm3nsourcesdkbinvbsp.exe" "-sw" "-dev" "-console" "-allowdebug" "-game" "c:program filessteamsteamappsSourceModsTCOTD" "+map" "mansion"

usage : vbsp [options...] mapfile
example: vbsp -onlyents c:hl2hl2mapstest

Common options (use -v to see all options):

-v (or -verbose): Turn on verbose output (also shows more command
line options).

-onlyents : This option causes vbsp only import the entities from the .vmf
file. -onlyents won't reimport brush models.
-onlyprops : Only update the static props and detail props.
-glview : Writes .gl files in the current directory that can be viewed
with glview.exe. If you use -tmpout, it will write the files
into the tmp folder.
-nodetail : Get rid of all detail geometry. The geometry left over is
what affects visibility.
-nowater : Get rid of water brushes.
-low : Run as an idle-priority process.
-nolinuxdata: By default, it writes physics data for linux servers.
This parameter disables writing linux physics data
into the map.

-vproject <directory> : Override the VPROJECT environment variable.
-game <directory> : Same as -vproject.

 Re: map wont load in-game
Posted by ReNo on Thu Apr 27th at 12:01am 2006

It doesnt look like it's actually RUNNING vbsp. You are using a parameter "-sw" with it, which isn't a valid parameter. I didn't know that specifying invalid parameters stopped the tool from running (I thought it would just ignore them) but that seems to be what is happening. For this reason, BSP isn't generating a BSP file, and so VIS and RAD are just running on top of the last successfully compiled version. That means any changes you make to the level aren't actually making any difference to the version of the map you are trying to run in game. Lose that parameter in the compile settings and see if you map runs after compiling.

PS. In future read your compile log and see if something looks abnormal or if there are error messages telling you what is wrong. This time, for example, it quite clearly states that you are using an unknown parameter, so the logical step would be to try removing it. I don't mean to discourage you from using this site to help you with your problems, but we do prefer it if people try their best at fixing the problem themselves (be it reading tutorials, searching for similar problems, or good old fashioned trial and error) beforehand.

 Re: map wont load in-game
Posted by fishy on Thu Apr 27th at 4:39pm 2006

when both Orph and I looked at it, we both said that there was a bunch of invalid textures references when we done the 'check map for errors' thing. i just put that down to the map being made for cs, or using custom textures, but it turns out that it's right, there are a bunch of invalid references.

i assume that at some point you extracted the materials from the gcf, and put them into your sourcesdk folder. the problem is, you've put them one folder too deep. if you look at the mansion building, for example, all of the textures are like materials/subfolder/texturename, when really there should be no mention of a materials folder, as the engine knows to look there anyway. the way it is atm, when the game tries to load, it sees all these texture references that point to mod/materials/materials/ which doesn't exist, and fails to load.

the easiest way that i can think of fixing it, is to use the 'replace textures' thing, by copy/pasting the name of existing textures, and removing the leading materials/ folder from the pasted bit. removing the materials/materials/folder first, will make finding and fixing the bad textures a lot easier too.

and be careful not to use textures from any of the props or models folders, like the floor in the upstairs of the mansionhouse, as it will render black/messed-up in game.

[edit] retracted as a possible answer. it didn't work a 2nd time, so i must have done something else. i thought it was slightly odd that the badly referenced textures didn't just show the checkerboard...... :/




i eat paint

okey dokey i fixed the texture problem where it couldnt them any of them :P and my new textures seem to be working fine.

but still my map will not load up in the engine, and i have noticed that its loading css now instead of hl2 and it loads the game.dll for counterstrike, now i dont think this should be happening but i could be wrong so here my compile log for you guys to check out and maybe to solve my problem i would have to change the engine from css to hl2 or something

plz let me know asap

I guess there's a problem with that mod then. Have you selected it from the SDK list before starting up Hammer? Have you checked whether or not the .bsp file actually exists in the mods maps folder?

? quoting SnowmanDev
plz let me know asap

We're good, not to be confused with omnipotent.

Here is a shot in the dark. Place a multi-player start and compile it. Try loading it as an HL2DM map.

If it loads, you will at least narrow the problem to the mod, and not the map.

Maybe.

ok tried that and it didnt work, also i thought it could of been the mod with help from fishy and i deleted all the mod folders and used the half life 2 mapping in the sdk, and to no avail the map still does not run even with normal h2 textures, i think this is a problem for the moderators and some really skilled guys, or maybe its just me being silly and tired i dont know but some other ppl really need to check this out, come up with ideas or anything... the last thing i want though is some 1 to say bite the bullet and scrap it, thats my last resort.

if it comes down to i guess im going to have to but for now this must be solveable,

and guys thanks so much for the support and ideas to help me out u dont understand how much i appreciate this comunity, although it could be bigger :P

thanx again

So, let me get this straight - you have been able to compile and run this map, or other maps, before?

i have, it worked and then i must of done something and now it doesnt work, i think it maybe the game files its using but i've changed everything back to basics and still it wont work, not even as a multiplayer map or without a mod and just in normal hl2, its strange.

i don't know exactly why, but it's somethiing to do with all the prop_dynamic_overrides that you've got parented to 'train'. why any of them have this prop type is a mystery, as is the reason they are parented to something that doesn't exist. various other props are also set as dynamics, when they should be prop_static, like some light fittings that were probably part of an on/off set-up when you first got them.

change all the prop types on the train to prop_static, except for the drivers chair, and i think a couple of the radio sets, which should be prop_physics, and your map will run right up until you try to use the elevator in the mansion, then it will crash again. :/

ok fishy i'll have a go, i think i mite delete the train, then go from there, but as i said there are no "errors" in the logs wouldnt they appear as errors in the log if they wer meant to be something else ?


Yup that it ... Really... uh huh... total world domination

SnowmanDev asked me if I could make the train move (I had been chatting with him over MSN to help him)-- so I made the brushes of the train as a func_door (not train for simplistics sake) and named it "train". Then I turned all the prop_statics into prop_dynamic_overides so that I could parent them all to the train (I made them all overides so I would have to go though each individual one and make the prop_dynamics -- because I was pressed for time)

well regardless of what the problem was its now solved lol, so if anybody asks about maps not loading after this then they should be thrown off the forum completely lol, i think nearly every angle has been answered in this post and if not i've seen 2 other posts that will surely get the problem fixed, im guessing if nothing fixes the map after these threads then nothing will.

Guy i really need to thank the lot of you, and my map has come on so much since the errors, i cant wait to upload and see what you guys think of the "dream" level of my second mod / first ever hl2 mod :P

thanx again,

SnowmanDev
