Can't Run Map

[LedZ38]

I just started creating maps and I am experimenting with the Valve Hammer Editor.

I want to run the map but I am having this error.

It comes up with a pop up window that gives you the option to send an error report or don't send it.
Then another window comes up and says "gameinfo.txt doesn't exist in ol"

I don't know info about what you need to know because I'm a n00b when it comes to this software.

Also, how do you output the map to bsp format?


Please help me out

Not a good sign.

What should I do?

... You seem to be a bit confused. Which game are you trying to map for?

To expand upon that. Source maps are .vmf files and aren't .map files

once u compile the bsp dusnt it have sum feature where it points out leaks to you.

I don't think his leaks are a major concern if he's using a HL1 editor to make HL2 maps.

 

[twinsen]

oh right. lol y cant he just use hl2 editor like every1 else.

 

[Raeven0]

You understand my concern, then.

 

[LedZ38]

The fgd file that I used was under a folder called "Half Life." I assumed that that folder was for half life 1, 2, and deathmatch.

I am trying to make a level for half life 2 deathmatch.

 

[Limpet]

The fdg's go in sourcesdk/bin
And selecting Half-Life 2: Deathmatch as the current game in the Source SDK menu should set up hammer properly for you.
There are tutorials out there on customizing the settings in hammer.

 

[Raeven0]

His compiler is running a CSG executable. He must be using the wrong version of Hammer.

The correct version must be attained through "Source SDK" in Steam's Play Games menu.

I am such a n00b. I forgot to make a player start point on the map.

... Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a smiley for "banging my head repeatedly against my desk."

 

[Limpet]

Like so?

 

[Raeven0]

Yes, that's exactly what's needed in this situation. Thanks.

You. Cannot. Make. HL2. Maps. With. A. HL1. Editor. And. Compiler.

Clear enough, or should I make it bigger?
