Water invisible, no known leaks.

[Mr. Origen]

I have tried everything I can think of and then some, I have scrounged every forum trying to find an answer, and the water on my map is still invisible. (I have a water_lod_control, there is no pointfile for me to load, i have a cubemap, water is made with nodraw first) I am at a loss.

Here is the compile log:

I don't know what to do at this point. This map was supposed to be my magnum opus.

By this piece I assume you probably killed VVis via task manage because it was taking too long. Considering that not only VRad can't do proper calculations, nor water will ever render. You will need to make vvis compile time shorter most likely for that to work. Portalfiles help with that.

Your VVIS fails halfway through compile for some reason.

EDIT: Damnit, ninja'd.

 

[Mr. Origen]

With the amount of brush details i have, i forgot to make a single func_detail out of them. Thank you.
