Needing Some Help

    Hello everyone! So I recently had posted a thread about 4 to 5 days ago about a problem I had with Hammer.. Well I decided to redo it, using a different version and now I am wanting to test the map out. Every time I want to run the map and get the .bsp file, it does not work. More specificly, the error I get is, "The system cannot find the file specified." and I cant seem to figure out what to do. :/

    Here is a Compile Process on what goes on when I try and run the map, also void the materials that are not found.. I haven't loaded some of the materials I am using on here.

    Your problem is:
    Code:
    **** leaked ****
Entity light (-937.00 -2255.73 127.00) leaked!
    Not to mention you have a whole bunch of missing textures:
    Code:
    Material not found!: CITY_8/PLASTERWALL005D
ConVarRef mat_reduceparticles doesn't point to an existing ConVar
material "" not found.
Material not found!:

material "city_8/console-cwu" not found.

ect...
    Anyway to fix the leak, Go up the top left in hammer, Map > Load Pointfile and look for the red line it creates, follow it and patch up the leak.
    If you want more Explination on what a Leak is go here https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Leak
    P.S. You Really shouldn't decomple maps, It causes ALOT of errors, this is just one of them, your best trying to get the orginal .vmf or make your own map from scratch.
    https://developer.valvesoftware.com will come in handy if you new to mapping, I also recommend you watch a few of TopHatWaffle's Tutorials (https://www.youtube.com/user/rocketrascal34), His V2 Series is the best so far.

    Good luck mapping!

    Thanks for the reply! I started fixing all the void problems. And would the materials that are not loaded also cause the problem for the map not work be placed in a .bsp? Also I am editing and making this map for a community, then I plan to make my own map.

    No, there must be a underlaying problem somewhere else in the map but do this to get your Materials ect working:
    Custom Materials, Models and Sounds for the map are in the .bsp (The Orginal one), But if I remember correctly C8 uses alot of EP1 and EP2 aswell. You are better Extracting the Custom Materials, Models and Sounds from the .bsp using GCFScape (http://nemesis.thewavelength.net/?p=26 Make sure you tell to associate with all fthe files, Mainly .vpk) and then also moving the EP1 and EP2 stuff into the directory for the game you are mapping for I.E HL2 ect

    I got all the materials when I decompiled the map, but I guess I am not placing them in correctly..

    I think my problem is "Too many t-junctions to fix up!" but I am not sure, if anyone could help me out, I would greatly appreciate it, I am so close to being able to run this map. :/

    The only reason maps are fatally not able to load is if you have some wonky shit that source doesnt think exists, or if there is a leak in your map. Its possible that there still might be some unknown leak- to see if this is the problem, draw yourself a large brush that encompasses your entire map. Hallow it out, and try and run the map. If this doesn't fix it, youll have to ask somebody a bit more experienced.
