Rendering Problems.....

[parkour freak]

Ok well i made this map and it has this Sphere in the middle and its floating in mid air and the whole sphere is a func_decal and when it the map renders everything is going well then at the end. of 10. A Microsoft error comes up saying vrad.exe has encountered a Error and needs to shut down.....
any idea how to get it to work?

 

[Shinobi]

you made a piece of geometry a decal?

 

[parkour freak]

Yes, someone told me to make it a decal something to do with the way its seen or something :/ i have tried it as a normal bush and the render will stop at 8 i have tryed grouping/ungrouping and still nothing..

 

[giant384]

try not rendering with vrad. man i havent used sourcesdk in so long.

 

[Rapstah]

func_detail is what you want.

 

[Shinobi]

indeed, you want func_detail and not func_Decal

 

[parkour freak]

oh sorry i miss spelled it but yea that is what im useing func_detail and still wont work.

 

[parkour freak]

here are some pix of it

 

[Shinobi]

try selecting all faces then aling to face... also et the scale and position to hard values..


crap I've had this problem countless times and I keep forgetting the exact solution

 

[parkour freak]

Ok well i tried and rendering it again..and still got the error.. but i went and tested the map anyway...and here is a pic of it...

BUT the whole time i was looking at it.. the console was saying this over and over and over.... Then i got to close to it and i timed out..
