OK I was planning on releasing this map right after the release of 1.0, but since it has come out, I have not been able to get into the map. I can get into my other projects fine, and I have only added new models to it since 1.0 came out.

This may be harmless, and if no strange side effects are occurring, then
it can safely be ignored. However, if your map starts exhibiting strange
or obscure errors, consider this as suspect.

Any suggestions? The map ran fine pre-1.0 even with the leaf portals saw into leaf error so if thats not the problem I don't know what is. Thanks...

does hl crash? if so where.

yah my computer freezes after Won Authentication

Unrelated, but I would fix the leaf thread problem for starts.

About the crash thing, I would venture a guess that it has something to do with the high number of wads you are including.

Maybe creating and drawing from a wad for your specific map, containing just the textures used in said map, would help your problem.

Maybe.

Mr. Binary

ok can't help ya there. if you happened to have added snow or rain i might suggest turning it off, as that was a problem of mine.

Warning: More than 8 wadfiles are in use. (43)
This may be harmless, and if no strange side effects are occurring, then
it can safely be ignored. However, if your map starts exhibiting strange
or obscure errors, consider this as suspect.



This causes more errors than you could possibly imagine. I had a leak that magically moved about my map once. before that HL crashed when random entitys were used. FIX IT NOW

interesting thing about the 8 + wadfiles causing trouble is that I've had issues occur previously...but currently I'm using all of the v1.0 wads + 5 custom wads in Hammer with no problems. I'm also only wadincluding the 5 customs to keep the file size down (I cut the size from 11Mb to 5-ish now) and haven't had problems, which is a good thing. It's always a good idea to make sure that too many wads isn't your problem.

K guys back from watching the Devils game :D , I will put all the used textures into a wad tomorrow and see if that works. Going to bed for now, will tell you if it worked tomorrow. Thanks.

FIX IT NOW same with me, very wierd stuff started to happen. my map wouldnt load, when it did, some of the textures from certian wads were messed up.

I had the problem also, I was using 23(!) wads just fine untill suddenly it just stoppped working and I had the strangest error.

I also had problems related to the wadinclude option, so be carefull using it...
