ok... this is rediculous... i have a leak in my map... i followed the line in the point file (wich took 10 minutes...) and it led to a wall... i checked the wall about 50 times already, and there is no problem with it... am i doing something wrong? or is that file actually useless...

Sometimes I've seen the same thing, if it truly is the end and it's not an entity then try remaking the brush.

Don't look for the end of the pointfile (in old HL...HL2 yes the end of the pointfile line is usually where the real leak is.) with old HL it's best to keep an idea of areas you've just been working on...and follow the line and where it passes through the area you're working in (often a big clue will be a part of your map's "interior" will have a bunch of pointfiling in it...which often means the leak is near there.
