Im having a small compile error. Ive compiled this map many times and have had no problems until now. Its not really a compiling problem though, but a problem that occurs during the compile. Ever since I got this Windows Service pack, the hlrad.exe would pop up an error by Windows.

It occurs at this point:

FinalLightFace:
10%....20%....30%....40%....50%....60%....70%....8 0%....90%....

So you can see, its at the end of the compile. Thats what ticks me off the most. Ive deleted the service pack, and I still get the error. Im using Batch Compiler.

Again, the error is one of those Window errors, and it says its hlrad.exe. I sent the error report, but I dont expect anything. I have no idea why its doing this. There is nothing corupt in the map, and Ive done many compiles and tests already.

Help me out here please. Thanks!

switch to xp-cagey tools, that might help

also if the problem persists, maybe try running the program in a different compatibility mode (windows 98/2000 or something)?

I have no other computer to compile on.
Arg. I might have to switch programs, but I hope thats not the case. Ive been using Batch for a long time now. Its pretty good. Stupid Windows...YOU SUCK! :mad:

i dont mean try on another operating system I mean go to the hlrad.exe properties and compatibility along the tabs at the top

its working now. i just replaced it with an older hlrad.exe file i found on my comp.

You didnt say which service pack your using, 1 or 2?

im using SP1 and it works fine.

it was 2. but i got rid of it.

Same problem here since installing SP2.

I have this problem with all new versions, including 3.0 of Zoner's. I went back to 1.7 Custom build of Zoner's, maybe older "P" one might work, summit like P13 ... dunno.
