Why does it take so long!?

[NoTarget]

Hi!
I can't compile my map, it takes hours to do that ? why?
Can somebody try to compile it, or see what is wrong??

here is my map http://www.stjernstedt.com/maps

[Zip]

I remember seeing a post about long compile times, i'll have a look for it.

Ok, do this:

1. Shift left click on your grass brush.

2. Change the texture to common/caulk.

3. Hold Shift and Ctrl and left click on the top of that same brush.

4. click on the grass texture.

Ok that will keep the grass texture away from the void outside.

Another thing that might help is to change your poles to brushes instead of curve. Eight sided brushes will compile a lot faster then curve cylinders that have been stretched way too much.

It probably wouldn't hurt to get rid of the overlaps in your sky brushes as well.

Hope that helps.

[NoTarget]

ok.. tnx!

But i can't do it Can you do it?

[tltrude]

It's your map, you do it.

[NoTarget]

Hmm.. okey!

But i don't understand it, first chulk texture so grass?
Why don't just take grass

[Hashmark13]

...you only want one side of the grass brush to be textured with grass!!! the other sides you want caulk because they are on the "void" or... the outter sides of your map the player cant get to and are sealed from any possible leaks (or they should be)... dont apply caulk to brush then grass to the whole thing... apple caulk to the whole brush then apply grass to the only side the player will see!!! and if you want an 8sided pole instead of the lag infested cyclinders go to arbritrary sided (after you have made a brush any around the size, heigth, width, so on... just go to arbritrary sided>8sides at the top of mohradiant.

im wondering wich slows down a map more as far as compile times and then when its done, FPS. would it me the number of brushes or the number of textures used?

thanks

Well in this map I think it is the 327 duplicate planes. Which tells me, it was decompiled from a bsp file! So, there is little wonder, in my mind, why he can't repair it himself.

[Bjarne BZR]

I compiled it in about a minute...

Here is the trace ( LOTS of duplicate planes, thats probably the problem... entity 0 and 8 are SEROIUSLY f**ed up ):
