I'm not very good at mapping, I've basically just messed around with maps for fun for a few years but recently I tried to actually make something.
I tried using the decompiled version of Goldrush from the Decompiled Valve Maps thread. Hammer reports that the map has reached MAX_MAP_BRUSHSIDES. How was the map compiled before if this is enabled? If I disable func_details (temporarily to try to lower the amount of brush faces), I get areaportal errors, and if I disable the areaportals, I still get areaportal errors as if they still exist. I obviously don't want them disabled, but I just want to see if this map is even able to be compiled at all.
The map also has player_clip as the floor beneath the entire map, and leaks seem to travel right through that (which I think is normal, I don't think they close the map off).
With all these problems, if I run the map the .bsp doesn't even get created.
The map is so old (and I don't know when that thread was last updated), but I can't figure out how this map ever functioned in Hammer. Can someone give me advice to get it working? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Here's the log of the unedited version of Goldrush
