help with hammer on source sdk

[captainpwnage1]

how do you make the bsp file for the map so you can load it?

or if its too complicated can someone make a bsp for it?

if so click here [url]http://www.garrysmod.org/downloads/[/url] for the link to the map download

:doh:
Open the map in Hammer, go to file and the choose "Run map".
Then make the box that appears look like this:

Maybe you should try remembering what it cant find. :downs:

ok then i will try again

ok the error is something called fl_flamefromabove, help!

[CoolCorky]

That sounds like the map name. It can't find the map.

And try posting about this in the mapping section, you'll be much more likely to get help there.

I always get the flamefromabove thing. There are just a few things you need to check, like that the Player's spawn isnt inside anything.

does that include gun model spawn?

Just make sure nothing is inside anything thats not hollow.

[QUOTE=Hakita;19484019]Just make sure nothing is inside anything thats not hollow.[/QUOTE]

ok i checked, and all the spawn points and guns arent in the floor

but i still have the flamefromabove, what do i do?

[CoolCorky]

I'm assuming you re-compiled the map.

[captainpwnage1]

[QUOTE=CoolCorky;19488066]I'm assuming you re-compiled the map.[/QUOTE]

how exactly? im kinda new at map making

[CoolCorky]

Same way as you compiled it to start with. How Hakita told you.

[editline]10:30PM[/editline]

Do it every time you make changes to a map or the changes won't show up in-game.

[lavacano]

Are you mapping for GMod or CS:S?

[CoolCorky]

[QUOTE=captainpwnage1;19456934]when i click ok css opens and a menu pops up..but then it says cant find i cant remeber what and then it completly shuts down[/QUOTE]

Have a book.

[captainpwnage1]

well im making a map for css but i do have options set to css so yeah....

[lavacano]

[QUOTE=CoolCorky;19501369]Have a book.[/QUOTE]

I'll give you a book, since that fits closest with what I'm getting at.

He said CS:S starts up, but he's posting in the [b]GMod[/b] support forum.

So either he's posting in the wrong forum, or he has Hammer set to CS:S for the content.

[QUOTE=captainpwnage1;19512274]well im making a map for css[/QUOTE]

Oh, there we go.

Wrong forum, methinks. I don't think CS:S mapping discussions goes in the .org's forum...where it WOULD go is a good question though, but this just doesn't work...

[CoolCorky]

It goes in the Mapping section. :rolleyes:
