I'm working on a map and compileing with Zoner's tools in Hammer. Everything was going fine and I was using the normal mode. Then I started to get the texture memory error and it woudn't compile. I did some quick searches and found that I needed to switch to the expert mode and add a parameter. I did that but now I get and 'Access Denied' for each compile program. I've posted the text file as well as a screen shot of my expert mode set-up. Please help.

My compiling tools are set-up in:
C:\Program Files\Valve Hammer Editor\tools

Type in "Nemesis Batch Compiler" in google and download that. It is a standalone compiler program. It works properly and will do a much better/effiecent job of compiling. Also, the error reports are more detailed and even offer solutions to the problem with Nemisis.

Make sure your giving the compiler the correct filepaths to your bsp, csg, vis, and rad .exe files.

Got Nem's Batch Compiler and got everything set-up. Works great.
