I am happly hamming away...

Just finished putting in some nodraw behind my latest displacement, I come out to see if everything is looking good and...

2D views are fine, and wireframes view works but the rest is crazy.
Alt + P shows no errors

What can I do??

 

[Snipergen]

restart hammer/source sdk/steam/computer/check drivers/reinstall source sdk/format c

In that order I'm afraid This is a nasty error as far as I know.

Hmm...Narrowed it down to this map (doesn't do it on an older version i loaded up)
ANd. Only does it when Disp Draw 3D is clicked (IE you are showing the displacements in hammer)


Suggestions, I could go back to the old version but have put in about 50hrs work since then, so I really don't want to

Maybe you have an illegal displacement? Try undoing the last few displacements you did for your map and see if that clears it up. Or move areas into VisGroups and turn them on and off and use that to narrow down what got broke.

I get this from time to time, looks mad. Almost like shards of nodraw when I move my mouse around in the 3d window. For me its displacements. You should be able to pinpoint the displacement thats causing this error my deleting each displacement, checking if you still have this then hit ctrl+z (Undoing it) if its not the problem displ. until you have found the problem displ.. Bit if a pita but it saves redoing loads of work again. Once you have got rid of this effect in the 3d window you know then which displacement is causing it so you can redo that one and only bad displacement.

Thanks guys, it seems it was a displacement, who knows what could have made it go like that...
Anyway went around deleting a few and eventually everything went bacl to normal.
