I've recently compiled a map I'm working on for a beta release, and now I'm up to packing the custom content from the map into the bsp (I'm using CompilePal), however I'm stuck on how to do this. As when I select the vmf in CompilePal under Pack, it says compile instead of scan. I'm confused as to whether this will completely recompile my map or just pack it?

if you only select the pack option, and the bsp is in the same folder as the vmf, you should be fine. just make sure vbsp, etc. are unticked.

So if the bsp is in a seperate folder, am I better off using something like VIDE or Pakrat?
