Compile problem, (I don't know if this is in the right place)

[aaagamer]

I am having a problem compiling a small house map i made, every time i go to compile, it rushes through, finishes in about 4 seconds, and says "access is denied" for all of the fields in the compile box. I would be great anybody knows some reasons why this error occurs so i can fix it myself.

Make sure you have UAC disabled if your running vista, make sure your admin, make sure the game is confiqured right.

Post your compile log and we will have a much better chance of figuring out the problem.
On default settings, Hammer will try to run a map immediately after compiling, which will cause errors while Hammer is still open (so tick Don't run the map after compiling) and Hammer also doesn't stop after some errors which may crash parts of the compile process, so it can appear to compile very quickly and spit out a lot of alarming ERROR! stuff in the console.

Another helpful little tool is this: [url]http://www.interlopers.net/index.php?page=errors[/url]
Paste your compile log into the box and hit "Check Log" and it will explain most of the errors.

If you are using the materials and models from your garrysmod folder in hammer then there will be a mount error if you launch gmod with hammer still open.
It is possible to get around this by using other folders of by using one of the other configs, such as the hl2 ep2 or css folders but this means you may have texturing difficulties as you will be working on different sets of textures for run and compile - you won't see newly added garrysmod textures in hammer.

Just because you haven't seen the problem it does not mean it does not exist.
