Now i can actually get dod to start but it then gives me this error
Cant register variable mp_chattime, already defined
map change failed: 'dod_hill' not found on server.
Any suggestions?... I tried adding a .map to my file name but that did nothing that I could see

i have an idea, but plz post the FULL compile log unedited b4 i respond

ok... this is the full .......... its actually works but... now it wont start up a server

I havn't done any mapping in a while, but this looks like your error. Check for any entities or brushes poking outside your map, or outside the grid. Again that's sorta a unspecific solution but I don't remember compile errors very much now.

Example:
Entity 10, Brush 0: outside world(+/-4096): (-9000, -64, 216)-(9000,23,283)

There are a few cases that create the 'outside world' error. The first is an damaged brush, almost always created by a vertex manipulation gone wrong. The coordinates listed in the error are very important in diagnosing the error. If any of the coordinates are -9000 or 9000, then the brush is damaged, and most likely needs replacing completely. The second most common case is actually having a brush near or outside the edge of the allowable region for the world. The brushes are expanded slightly for some of the calculations during a compile, so brushes near the edge within 64 units will cause the error too. The cordon tool creates brushes automatically to box in the cordon region, and their brushes can sometimes be quite large, and also extend outside the world. This can be verified by opening up the .map created by an export with cordon enabled, and looking to see what brushes it made.

A COMMON PROBLEM I just usually delete the culprit brush rather than trying to fix it, saves time.

CHECK ZHLTProblems.html in your ZHLT dierectory on your PC before posting.

You will 99% of the time find your problems.

1. Hit cntrl-f for 'find'
2. type or paste your error ['outside world'] from your log
3. No luck? View sticky at the top of the page IR posted
4. If you still are stumped post here
