I take it this only happens with displacements?
If so, add -novirtualmesh to your compile parameters.


Also change the texture of the dock. Docks are rarely tile. -Facepunch

You don't "find" a parameter bud, you "add" it to the compile settings.

The question you need to ask is, "where" to put it at?

There are some tutorials on basic compiling.

I am not positive where, but you need to add "-novirtualmesh" to one of your compile tools.

Prolly vvis, i dunno.

The point is, you need to add it to the compile setting.

Go to "excpert compile mode", select &bsp_exe then in the "parameters" window add -novirtualmesh. Add -novirtualmesh in front of every other text that's already in there followed by a simple space. So for example

-novirtualmesh $something c:%sourcesomething%/something/somethingigo


Why snark works.

Try searching for something before you post. I know I asked this same question a few months ago and it was answered. It would've saved you some time.

The whole point with new-comers is, they probably don't know where to search. It's very straight-forward for us now, but not for everyone. And that's exactly why these boards exist. <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif">

Anyway, as for searching, the Valve Wiki is a good place to start. <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif">

Yes, do please mark me correct, my snarkmarks haven't increased in a while.

As for the deleted map, try searching in your autosave folder for a version of the map that you can salvage.
The directory is:
C:Program FilesValveSteamSteamAppsyournamesourcesdkbinHammerAutosave
