So, I can't seem to fix this error that appears as: (look at the title, dummy). I've run my compile log through interlopers like 5 times and fixed a few leaks, but interlopers won't mention the error I need fixed. Could you help me fix this error? Here's my log (Please ignore the leak unless it is part of the problem.):

(That last line is the error I've been talking about.)

This error arises from when another issue within your compile causes it to fail. Could you fix the leak then post the compile log back here if it still isn't fixed?

The compile is definitely succeeding, VBSP is finishing and VRAD is capable of adding lighting. I looked at your compile log and there seem to be a few mismatches in your map's name, specifically around the period that you put in your map's name. My guess is that the compiler doesn't like this. Try removing that period from the name of your VMF and then compile.

Thanks, I've tested your idea and it works perfectly. But how will players tell that the version is 2.1 and not 2 1? What can I replace the period with that won't make 0 sense?

You could replace the .1 with an A (pl_mixture_v2a), an underscore (pl_mixture_v2_1), "fix" (pl_mixture_v2fix), etc.
