PRT file not created, can't compile

"hlvis: Error: Portal file 'C:\Documents and Settings\Optional\Desktop\mn.prt' does not exist, cannot vis the map"

That is in my .ERR file. Only thing that runs is CSG, and yes, PRT is not being generated for some reason.

That could be your problem there, try fixing the textures or make another version of the map and replace all the offending textures with working ones to try and isolate the problem. Using the replace texture feature it'll take no time.

You are not useing hlbsp.

Texture usage is at 3.96 mb (of 4.00 mb MAX)

You're very close to your texture memory limit, that could also be causing the problem.

You can change the limit with zoners tools:

Use "-texdata [X]" to set the new memory limit, where [X] = the number of kilobytes you wish to allocate. For example, for 8 megs, you'd add "-texdata 8192"

This is a shared parameter across all the compile executables

[edit] Tracer, completely missed that, well spotted. :smile:

I already had tried texdata paramenter. It didn't work.

As for those texture exceeds limit, I've gotten those a few times, never changed anything.

OMFG! I must have hit the HLBSP button by accident. Wow, I'm f**king stupid.
