.Map :: MoHAA Mapping

Surgeon wrote:ERROR: MAX_POINTS_ON_WINDING exceeded

There are too many vertices repeating themselves along a single axis (ie you have an extremely long single brush). It can also mean you have a "brush side polygon" somewhere with more than 64 corner points.

SOLUTION: Find the offending brush (edit -> find entity/brush, and enter the brush number.) and either delete it or cut it into smaller pieces.

That's the second entry on the first post

what brush number as i cannot find it

i had found the solution i made a copy of my map and went by sections,
deleted parts then tried to compile once was good i knew what area to look at piece by piece

my problem is MAX_SURFACE_INFO, I read in the first post it means to much shader data in the scripts file, how do I go about fixing this?

SOLUTION: Remove custom pk3s

oops sorry I didn't see that on the first post the first time.
I only have city nights and 1 other map(which only has a couple custom textures) that can't be that much, can it?

I'm not 100% sure how it works but even 1 user made .pk3 file can screw things up

Ive read all the posts on this topic and have tried a few things to fix my problem, but none have worked. Im getting the MAX_POINTS_ON_WINDING error. Ive gone through and cut up some larger pieces with no success. I found I also had Float Plane: bad normal. So I downloaded the Rogue file that you suggested. Im not sure how to use it though. But I searched for the floatplanes on my map and they are so big they extend far off the map. (I dunno if they always do or not) But when I select them and delete them they are back next time I search for them. Heres my compile logs:

************ ERROR ************
Exceeded MAX_POINTS_ON_WINDING

And heres a snapshot of what the plane looks like on MOHRadient:

http://www.geocities.com/foxsf24/Paradi ... screen.jpg

Anyone know how to fix this problem?

what do you have selected? you got a HUGE something highlighted.

Yes i know its huge. I think that is the float plane. But i cant get any better picture of what it is and I dont know how it got there, but there are about 20 of them. Only one is selected.

I has a big problem:

The problem is this:

I delete the others .pk3 files.

I reistall the mohaa.

I created a nem map.

I formated my computer.

And don't resolve this problems:

What are the solution???

Please help-me.

I work with Architeture with Mohaa Tools.

I has tje Mohaa.

I has the Mohaa Spearhead.

Please help-me:

i just had the wierdest thing in my compile...

my compile was stuck on 81 percent for radiosity lighting

and said 0 hours 0 min 0 seconds reamsining

so I let it sit for four hours come back later still the same

SOLUTION: I highlighted and right clicked on it or something and it finished the compile after that quickly

RodneyBrazil, I think your -gamedir isn't right. Check your paths in MBuilder.

Serph, maybe you had text selected in the dos window? If you select text the compile doesn't continue, if you right click the text is unselected and the compiler continues

Sorry jv_map. Speak easy English

I'm Brazilian.

15 years.

English is difficult to me:

I compile my map:

The compiling don't stop.

When has the problem with the trees and Toilet_Shot.tik.

I play my map in the game. When without the trees and Toilet_Short.

I compile in the Mohaa Tools.

I click in the menu BSP and after i click in the bsp_BSP.

And now i has other problem:

I modifi much the Mohaa Tools and now has too this problem.

Q3MAP Version 1.34

What are the solution of my 2 problems.

And please speak easy English.

Please response:

And Thank's.

he says that, in Mbuilder your game directory is set wrong..

get the path to your game directory for moh, copy it and paste it into the text box in moh labeled game directory
