Map Randomly Crashing to Desktop

[Kemerd]

I don't know why, but my map crashes to desktop, no errors or anything, after a few seconds of walking around.

I've used -condebug and nothing shows up on the console.

You start in a trainstation, and it only happens you go outside. Help?

[Firegod522]

Do you have the compile log?

It worked fine before, just stopped working all of the sudden. I gave the .bsp to my friend and he crashes as well.

It's strange because in the last compile I could play fine and my friend crashed, and the compile before that it crashed.

I'm assuming it has something to do with VVIS, because you can stay in the trainstation all day long and be fine.

Thanks for the quick reply! :)

[Firegod522]

Unfortunately I cannot determine whether or not you compiled using fast, or final, which are you doing?
Do you perhaps have a screenshot of the map? (hammer or in game)
I also noticed the number of brushes you have, is very near the limit, you may wish to lower the brush count by using models [url="https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Propper"] Propper.[/url]

[TFlippy]

Are you using any converted models in your map? For example, L4D2 models converted to Orange Box format?

[Kemerd]

@Firegod522.

I've compiled using Final with "-StaticPropLighting -StaticPropPoly -TextureShadows" on VRAD.

The thing is, it worked perfectly fine before, all I've added a small teleporter. (Two models and two brushes.) Along with that, I could play it perfectly fine, but my friend crashed.

I hosted a multiplayer server (srcds) on sandbox, and when I crashed it said I Had SteamAuth error code 6. Then, I thought it was steam not authorizing the compile, (You have to have it running to compile.) Then, even though I had steam open, it still crashed on compile.

@TFlippy, no. Also, it worked perfectly fine before, as I said. So it can't be that. Along with the fact that you can stay inside the trainstation perfectly fine.

I'll try to record a video.

[URL="http://screencast-o-matic.com/watch/c2fIIInt3S"]Here is the video! Click here![/URL]

Just for the record, I've tried it with all of my addons disabled, still no luck.

[wazanator]

Do you by any chance have any kind of looping logic in it?

[Kemerd]

It works fine when I remove the extra parameters... Maybe my map is too close to the limit for it to load all of those lightmaps.

I wish I could have them though. :/

23086 faces
[B][U]8 degenerate faces[/U][/B] -- this causes texture errors on faces that are declared degenerate. The lighting and shadows will fail, but I am not sure if it is the source of the crashing. Look for brush work that is off the grid, and or with size values with decimals

You should try to keep your brushwork in multiples of 2 like 2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512,1024,2048 etc.

If you see something thats 64.2 or anything like that, then be sure to fix it right away.

I suggest cordoning off sections of the map at a time to find the problem. Start off by doing it in complete half then work from there. Also be sure to move your map ents like light_environment and info_player_start to the playable non cordoned off area.

phew im done
