I remember this one, my first compiling prob. Here goes:

Problem: MatchToken Error ({) failed at line xxx of ....//Something like that

Solution: Remove custom pk3s.

In this case the original static model TIKI files are flawed.

Not a very serious error though.

hi

WARNING: node without a volume

node reference point 723.00 -1712.00 -10.00

i found this on a site :


An infinite brush. Delete it. The latest build of GtkRadiant has a debug tool that can help the mapper track down infinite brushes. Go to the BSP menu and select No_Vis (No light). After the compile process, a window will open up--assuming you've got bad brushes--and the first brush in the list will be selected and visible in the Z-Window. Merely press Backspace to delete this brush and repeat the No_Vis process. Or, you can use the Find Brush command (Misc menu) to find and then delete those bad brushes.

dont worry aboult the first part its the Find Brush command we want its in Edit - Find Entity/Brush.. put in reference point to find & delete

Localization Error?

Post by liquidice »

I get this when I try and compile my maps manually and with mbuilder.
"Localization error: Mohaa console does not have a localization entry."
now what does that mean?





It never lets me build or compile any maps, I can build them in mohradiant i just can't compile them.
btw. I am running windows 2000 pro?

localization error means mohaa can't translate certain texts (it even tries to translate script files :roll:)

It shouldn't stop you from running the map though. Just ignore this error.

any1 out there with all the answers?

not really a compiling problem but it may well be, i've got a .bsp of a secret source and when i try loading it (obj/tow) it comes up with this error

ERROR: CM_Loadmap: maps/obj/MP_peenemunde_TOW.bsp has wrong version number (21 should be between 19 and 19)

i'm guessing but i think it's something to do with the version number :P any1 had this b4???
hope this helps, prob not cos it's all foreign 2 me :-/
