Hi. I just started playing with Hammer, and after doing some stuff, I decided that I wanted to try it out, so I tried to compile.
After getting through the compiling process, I got an error saying "MountAppFilesystem() failed:
SteamMountAppFilesystem(215,22,0x12dfd74) failed with error 21: A
different version of this FS is already in use"
Searched some, and found this http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Source_SDK_Known_Issues#Physics_Objects_Clip_Through_Displacement_Surfaces_.28Since_8.2F4.2F2006.29

Followed the instructions, and I got the rid of the message, but now there were a new problem. As I got into the game, I cant run the map! All i got was this error message:
CModelLoader::Map_IsValid: No such map 'testar'
map load failed: testar not found or invalid

Been looking around some, but havent been able to solve it, so now im asking you pros. Do you know what to do?

Have you checked if your testar.bsp file actually exists in the appropriate maps\ folder? Also, what does your compile log say? The map might have some problems so it fails to compile, or something along those lines.

The MountAppFilesystem error has to do with Steam (i.e. steam's copy-protection routines) and not so much with Hammer itself. This specific error also seems to be only about auto-loading the map in game. Activating the console in game and typing "map yourmapsname" allows you to load the map yourself after compiling has finished.

What I think is that the compile programs didn't even run. When they do run (error free) they'll optimize and finalize your "mapname.VMF" map-file (the Hammer editor-file) and write a finished and optimized "mapname.BSP" map-file which is then copied to your "Steam\SteamApps\[steamprofile-name]\gamename\maps" directory. The game can only load compiled BSP files.

In your case the compile didn't even run and did not place a finished BSP file in the gamename\maps directory. Thus the "not found" error.

Probably some of the compile parameters, game directories in the Hammer preferences or compile settings are messed up so the map never really gets compiled into a BSP file. If you post the compile log (I hope there actually is a compile log now?) it should be easy to track the error down. Also tell us the game you map for to make sure the paths go to the correct folder.

Why snark works.

This my good Sir, is the very best of places to put it. Saves us the troubles of requesting you to.

/me pats on back for a job well done.

Not sure where the .bsp file should be, but it created, I tnow this because I've searched for it, and found it. But as I said, im not sure.

Hmm, The bsp goes into the maps folder, or should have. Where did you locate it and if its not in maps, fix the path so it will in Hammer.

If the map is in maps already, make sure you added a playerstart, or the game won't be able to locate it.

The best things in life, aren't things.

<html><head><link rel="stylesheet" href="themes/standard.css" type="text/css"></head><body topmargin=2 leftmargin=2>I think that I might've figured it out. I should probably compile the files in the new mods folder. Im gonna run over to one of my classmates tomorrow (its 3am here right now) and borrow his Visual C++ .Net 2003 cd, and follow valves guide to compiling the mod.
