I get this error,
'cable/chain.vmt' overflow, too many models
I used to have many many models in my map, but since i started getting this start up error i was trying to eliminate the problem, its not the models.
See i went to entity report and deleted all of my physics props to see if the error has stopped, it hasn't. And it isint an error with that weird SDK glitch where it doesn't render the changes made to a map but stations itself on a previous version, i can tell because of the file size difference, it reduced since i deleted all of my models.

To look at the VMF or try and load up the map i have placed the bsp in the file also.
Please message back if there are any answers, thanks.
Feel free to keep the file and use it any way you want. Honestly i just wanted this map to have exciting dynamic npc battles on, its fully noded. If you want to modify and publish something like it on your own, i dont mind just let me download it. :)
Are you using that texture on any brushes?
Your map is leaking and that is what is probably causing your issue. If it leaks, you get no visleafs made so you are going to be drawing HUUUUGE sections of your map and when I compiled it, your models limit is sitting at 95%, which in it self, won't cause an issue till you try to render loads of them due to no visleafs. I Can't guarantee that's your issue, but good bets the leak is what is causing it - ain't got time at the moment to fix it.
Also, your entdata is at 211.7%! Highly recommend that you trim that down.
Compile log for info of others, ignore missing textures, will probs be me.

Thanks Killermon, im going to edit my previous versions with all of the props, and take a few buildings out and shrink down the overall size of the map. If anyone has any tips based on what I've done I would love to read them. Editing now :)

It's not the size of the map that's the issue, in fact, compared to some maps, it's tiny. Most of your issues are probably being caused by the number of nodes that have been spammed around your map - it's completely unnecessary to have that many nodes.
You've got absolutely tons of unnecessary hint nodes, look at [url]http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Nodegraph[/url] for a better understanding of how to use nodes more efficiently ;)
That could be true too, i guess i misunderstood noding ill have to go back and edit that.
