I have water. It works great when you are underneath. Everything looks normal. However, when you are above the water, anywhere in the map and look at it, it is weird reflective like I left a whole in the level (the weird hall of mirrors or whatever they call it). I followed the HL2 tutorial on it, but I could not get it to work. I have nodraw (the yellow) on all faces except the top. Then on the top I have the water surface. Any ideas?

Could be a problem with the env_cubemap perhaps?
Did you connect it to the water and type "buildcubemaps" in the compiler? I was having a similar problem awhile back, and I believe this was the cause.

make sure you have env_cubemaps in your map, then when in your name, go into console and type buildcubemaps
u will see a lot of screens fly by. once thats done. reload the map. if this dont work
make sure u have a water_lod_control someplace in your map

Its just "map mapname". And if you don't have your console activated yet, you aren't going to get anywhere.
When you open up HL2DM or CSS or HL2, you need to go into Options, then Keyboard, then Advanced. Then you check the box that says Ativate Console (~).
And after you do Buildcubemaps, I've found things look better if you close your map and open it again.

not working
It still has the same problem. Everything looks great when you are under water. And when you shoot the surface. But when you are on top it does not draw and gives the hall of mirrors effect. I tried building cubemaps and re-loading. Check out screenshot to see if it looks about right.

if you cant load a pointfile then you dont have a leak (probably). try this. run your map and on the compile options click normal on bsp, normal on vis, and no on rad. this will compile your level without calculating the lights, and will put it on fullbright. doing this will just make compiling faster. after you are done compiling try loading the pointfile again in hammer and see if anything shows up. if not, then im almost positive you dont have a leak. however, if you dont have a leak, then im not sure what the hell is wrong with your map. youd have to send me the .vmf file via email for me to check it out.
[email protected] tell me when sent
I am still a noob. I have only been making levels in HL2DM for about a week. Anyways, I want to find a torch first. Where can I find a tourch, I know I have seen some in the dm levels before. Thanks.now comiping, but no water
I guess that fixed it:
I did not change anything but a couple steps and it started compiling again. My water however is still broke. I did a full compile and re-built cubemaps. Also, I reloaded the map. Now when I look at the water I see the sky. And when I am in the water it still looks great.

My compile came out pretty good. I noticed it said too many portals. I do not even know what a portal is really....

few things to check:
1) some water doesn't display correctly. try using a different water texture.
2) Make sure your water texture is only on one (the top) surface of each water brush.
3) Make sure you have all your water textured surfaces at the same level (same z-value in hammer). Source doesn't support differing water levels. They must be horizontal as well.

VIS failed. Sometimes, water doesn't appear properly if VIS fails. Indeed, in my old testmap, one pool of water was fine without VIS and the other was broken.
VIS is failing because you have an area (leaf) of your map connected (the connections are called portals) to too many other areas (leaves). Having a complex object, such as a 64-faced sphere, that hasn't been tied to a func_detail would cause this, as the map space is split into leaves parallel to the world faces in the map. A very large room with a few hundred hallways branching off it might result in too many portals.

weird
I got my map to compile fast. I removed all of the water and their objects. Then I copied and pasted an entire working water level (1 room with 6 walls 1 water brush and the 2 objects you need for water). Now it compiles very slow and water does not work. Any ideas?

I converted all of the tower shells to detail (CTRL-T). Water is still broke. What can I do to fix?

one room
I only have 1 room in my level basically. So would there be anything wrong with changing everything to func_detail?
I tried this. It made everything into one big glob. Is there a way to undo CTRL-T and turn it back to normal, later. Without using CTRL-Z?

Ctrl + Shift + W is the fast way of moving it back to "the world".
It was crashing in game now. I have made lots of changes. It works fine as long as I do not select everything and press CTRL-T. Any suggestions?

ok i think your entire CASTLE should be a funcdetail, because of the way its structured, but not everything else in the map. also, there are two rooms connected to the skybox. and between them you have the nodraw texture attached where they meet. i think this alone might cause your water to screw up. im compiling right now to see whats up.
Edit: get rid of the 'alyxgun' entities you put in....those arent real weapons....also get rid of that antlion and any AI you plan on putting in this map. never put AI in a multiplayer map. it will not work.
Nother edit: found why your water wont work. you know how you attached a room to your sky box? dont ever do that. ever. not only does it not make sense, it will also make your water not work. so, drag the skybox up till it is level and above this little room you connected to the skybox. then fill that area in with a concrete wall. my description sucks and i dont care. i will send your map back to you tomorow so you can see what i mean and see what i did to change it, and then you can apply it to your map. dont just save the map im giving you and continue from what i did, do it your damn self. for now....im goin to bed. i will also point out that static props floating in space arent to slick either. AND why the hell did you make a pyramid out of about 40-50 explosive barrels? i will comment more tomorow.

I'm going off what he writes in his replies. I haven't looked at his map at all.
This is why the latest version's water doesn't work:

Surprisingly, turning everything into a func_detail causes leaks. This contrasts with the general expectation in that turning everything into a func_detail should not only cause leaks but break the map entirely.
