Hey there, new mapper here!

So, I've finally finished my map after working some hours straight and I've saved the .vmf file. I was just about to compile the map so I could test it, but it can't find a .bsp file...
Here's the full compiling log:

The command failed. Windows reported the error:

(Which means smth like the system can't fine the specified file)


Hope anyone can help me, any try on helping would be greatly appreciated!

Is there any way to "fast find" the entitiy or do I have to search it manually? :|

Yup! You can use the Go to coordinates... button in one of the dropdown menus and enter the number that the compiler gives you (in this case, -8000.00 -8953.47 -9376.00). You can also load a pointfile with Load pointfile... to see a red line pointing to the location of the leak.

It appears you have a origin point outside the map then. Select all your props (you can do it easily by using visgroups to disable everything but brush entities and props) and then Right Click > Centre Origins

Check if you have disabled the world geometry visgroup.

No, I haven't, and exactly that is my problem. Everything is showing up in Hammer and I can compile the map now, but some parts are just missing :|

That darn invalid solid curse...

what's helped me sometimes is re-saving the map as something else,then compiling.

First add a water_lod_control entity, the compiler is doing it for you each time.Just put it in,doesn't take too long.Here's valves guide https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Water_lod_control

Also fix your water also by putting the above water texture on top of the brush,lower beneath the brush,the rest should be nodraw.I'm not sure if that's your problem,but it doesn't hurt.

Also did you look for the file in the folder that the compiler said it compiled to at the end? Just asking,you probably did already.

Okay, added the water_lod_control entitiy.



I don't get that part, sorry :| I've put everything on nodraw now and applied the water texture I wanted on the top.



Yes, I did.
