HELP ME PLEASE, IM ABOUT TO THROW MY COMP. OUT THE WINDOW!!!

[Grog]

Please someone help me, ive been having sooo much trouble compiling my map..... When i run the batch file i Mbuilder, it starts complaining about a .bsp file... it says blah blah blah.bsp does not exist,,,,, i thought Mbuilder was supposed to create the bsp, please someone help me, many nights of lost sleep due to this...

[mohaa_rox]

Did you set your MBuilder paths correctly? Or try finding the .bsp in the path where you saved your map. Why don't you register?

[Grog]

IM sure alll the paths are correct, when i look where i saved my map (G:program files/eagames/mohaa/main/maps/dm) i see mymap.map and mymap.bak no bsp, light or vis! can u help? yes i do plan on regestering... i will as soon as i get back to my normal house

[mohaa_rox]

Ok, did you set the paths of your mohaa tools and mohaa game? Program files\mohaa tools is the default path for Radiant and Program files\ea games\mohaa is the default path for the mohaa game. Then just click other options in MBuilder and select death match/free-for-all/round-based. Then compile and play!

[Grog]

Thats exacly what i do, and it says it cant find a bsp and it doesnt appear in the game

Copy the stuff from where it says "Batch File" in MBuilder and post it on here - need to look at something

Don't know how big your map is, but is your VIS datasize more than 2.9 million??? If it is, no .bsp will be created. I'm sure this isn't your problem, but something to consider.

This is where it says batch file, also i get tons of max surface errors, my Mbuilder is a mess.

[Surgeon]

Copy "G:\PROGRA~1\EAGAME~1\MOHAA\main\maps\dm\dm\Testlight.bsp" G:\PROGRA~1\EAGAME~1\MOHAA\main\maps

try changing it to

Copy "G:\PROGRA~1\EAGAME~1\MOHAA\main\maps\dm\Testlight.bsp" G:\PROGRA~1\EAGAME~1\MOHAA\main\maps\dm

[Grog]

It still gives me that bsp error plus the max surface info error.

[Grog]

anyone? or is it hopeless?

[Surgeon]

Ok the max_surface_error could be being caused by .pk3 contamination - try removing any custom .pk3 files and , if you have Spearhead, rename the mainta folder to anything so long as it doesn't have main in it.

Hopefully this will (fingers crossed) solve the problem..

[Grog]

Ugh w/e im gonna send the.map to a friend to compile it for me, cause i cant take this.

[Catch22]

If you look on the top bar for BSP, then select in turn, bsp, then once that has finished, select bsp_vis (fast), again let that finish then select bsp_light (fast), again let finish, then try running the compiler. Have you downloaded Mbuilder. It will compile you maps with easa.

Catch22

[mohaa_rox]

I suggest you don't use bsp_light, bsp_vis. Use MBuilder. That compiler sucks!
