Hammer Map-(compiled)-Not loading The proper save?

Garry's Mod general
#1

I have recently had another server built and have decided to make it Winter Survival, for this occasion i decided to get into mapping.

My first map was a failure but have worked out most of the basics . Now when i run the hammer error reporter, Alt P, it comes up with no errors. When i compile the map, no errors, when i compile the map no errors. When i load the map no errors… Then when i get into the map, it loads an old version of the map.
I have tried several times to load and re-compile the map. Nothing seems to work!

Any thoughts on this problem/any way to fix it.

Here is the log of the compile:

No errors, you say? You’ve at least got a leak and a bad surface. Also, there are no portals, so it’s definitely fucked up.

#3

Ah! a closer look is just what i needed, now what about the portals, what are they.
(As i said earlier, i am a novice at this.)

#4

Don’t worry about the portals for now, that error should disappear when you remove the bad surface and fix the leak. :stuck_out_tongue:

#5

I’ll try it asap and post back here if it works/didn’t work. Thanks

[editline]08:55PM[/editline]

OK, i tried to delete the leaks… they continued to come on every info_play_spawn i made, and the bad surface i cannot undo, they are connected to my map base…

Sorry to be a pain i am a novice. :frowning:

#6

Exact same thing is happening to me! Except when I do it NOTHING but HDR updates.

#7

Leaks happen when the map isn’t sealed from the void. Also there is a mapping forum for this sort of thing.

#8

Sorry 'bout the miss post then.
I have checked all the corners for that sort of thing but i cant see the black void any where.
I will just have to rebuild the map again from scratch and be more careful where i put every thing.
Thanks for the tips and suggestions though. :slight_smile:

#9

Delete old version of the map before recompiling.
