in your maps/dm folder
you need your .bsp .prt and .vis file
if you dont have a .prt file in your compile it means you have a leak usually (most common) check your compile log to see whats wrong...
other than that it should work..

do you use mbuilder to compile ??
if so open it up go to other options, and check the check box pause after bsp and pause after light
then compile
after the first pause and look for something that says error or leaked
they will have a bunch of *** around them
like *******************
******LEAKED*****
*****************
if its a leak then it means, that there is an entity going out into the void,
the void is never never land nothing all that grey stuff u see when your mapping.....
a quick fix to this is put a skybox around your map

some nice tuts here
or you can always use the ones here at .map... but surgeon is a boring tutorial writer

scratch what i said last - ther is a leak. it says info_player_axis and info_player_allis leaked. i think those are the spawn points i put but they're not in an ednless void. there just there. what do i do?

ok so i fixed the spawn leak but now it does say
********************
******leaked********
********************
i dont see anything in my "endless void" is there any other way something can leak? if i put one of the trees too low or too high on the map does that count as a leak?
