-
i wont be able to work with the map for a while,
im trying to downlod the darkmod assets vie the tortoise and its like max 20 kbits per second and if i open up radiant it jumps to 2kbits per second :/
this will take around 5 days i think
-
YAY congrats Theothesnopp on betamapper status
thanks im trying to get the svn working now =D
i dont really get it yet :/
-
Yes, those scenes are very promising.
Are you sure there's bloom in those shots?
whats bloom? lol
i hear everyone talk about it all the time its getting confusing

Download from the link you put up in this thread. You need to start from there and divide it. The ones I split up are rough - there are parts missing and other errors so when joined together again there may be problems. For instance, leaks I fixed crudely. Some entity errors I just deleted the enitities. I changed ambient lighting as I couldn't see well. Added player starts. I can upload the parts I made if you like though. Maybe you prefer to put them together. Up to you.
oh yeah i uploaded it here i forgot about that
-
okey ill have to read that through a few times cuz i cant hand´le to much complicated english at the time
a question just could u upload the files here cuz im on another computer and i wont get to the computer wtih the files for like a week or two
so if u could send it it would be great
-
yeh i kind of feel like im a "hanger on" (i think the word is)
well thanks for the help and if you want to stop with the eeh helping me you can stop and i can try to continue

That's what they want you to think.
@theothesnopp: Now got AaA working but the dmap took ages for such a small section. I see 'backward triangle' errors - normally not serious but there are quite a lot. I'll be looking for complex patchwork tomorrow.
What pieces of the mission I've played look really good so this must be rescued. Once the bad errors are fixed you can still expect a lot of work fixing the leaks. This is because I think when the errors are discovered it's safer if we go back to the original and fix them there rather than merging this lot back together again.
yes, thanks for all the help
i do hope this will be playable and stuff when the big problems are finsihed and i have fixed the leaks then i will have a few things to fix first but hopefully not to much
-
No.
later though These are just notes to record what I'm doing...
I've deleted a static door handle func_static_45 because it was split badly far out in the void and very difficult to put back together again. I gave up after 10 minutes. It can be retrieved from an earlier save and merge it back is easier.
I've deleted MissionEnd2 - a clip brush which is in the void and I suspect it should be in Part B. I saved it as a temp prefab so hope to import it back later.
I now have part A split in two layers. I have to break for an hour but will continue later.
so it was something outside the map?
thanks for the help
-
I just looked at the part where you go underground and then into the mansion. I'm sorry to say but it's very messy. You should use bigger grid sizes for the outer brushes keep things tidy and to avoid leaks. After fixing the many leaks I was able to play it a bit. It looks nice but it was too laggy to explore everything.
lol yes its very messy :]
i think next time i make areas im gonna make the outer brushes first (skyboxes and those that you wont see)
it will be easier to vizportal and tidyer
i think it sound like a good idea but i dunno
thanks =)
-
OK, the tempB file had 3 or 4 leaks which I've fixed and its dmapping as I write this. I'll give it a quick look but I think it will be OK.
The TempB file has the bad error in it. I'll look at that now and split it in two again.
uh thanks u didnt have to fix the leaks but. thank :]
-
OK, I'll take a look
thanks.

Remember, if you're struggling you can also upload it and we can take a look at it.
The lesson to be learned is always dmap and test as you go along. If you do half an hour's work then test it and there is an error then you know where to look. If you do three month's work without testing then there are likely to be lots of problems and you don't know where.
yep i give up :[
i cant find anything suspicious
sorry for this :/
anyway ill upload here
http://www.2shared.com/file/4774130/d50f59...pname_maps.html
tempnametesta crashes but tempnametestb just gives a leak so that one seems okay.
-
Yes, this is the way I would do it.
- Save the map as eg tempA.map
- Create a new layer named eg, halfA
- Find a place somewhere in the middle that is easiest to split
- Shift LMB drag the mouse over one half to highlight it
- RMB in orthoview and select move to layer halfA
- Save
- Save again as tempB.map
- Select halfA layer and delete it
- Save
- reload tempA.map
- Select default layer and delete it.
- Save
- You now have two maps
- Look at the place where you split it and block it off roughly with cork to seal it.
- Do the same with tempB.map
- dmap them separately and test
- if any half gives major error repeat for that half
- if any half gives different error, eg, leak, then deal with that separately
- When all halves are fixed then merge maps back together and remove temp caulk blocks
okey ill get oj with thjat now then
thanks - Save the map as eg tempA.map
-
What Fidcal means is split your map into two areas. For each of them, take it into a new file, close up the gaps with the void and test it. Then probably the error appears in only one of those two new maps. If you repeat this you can find the source of the error. If the error happens in both new maps, you're unlucky
.okay tha will have to be tommorow then, its so lpate now :]
-
Split it in half, seal off each side and test them separately.
If there error is only in one half then repeat.
sorry i dont get it?
should i seal of half the map and dmap?
-
Node without a volume can also be a simple patch, so these warnings are probably harmless. But maybe you have very thin brushes around or maybe your map is just too big somehow?
Also, did you vizportal it?
yes i did vizportal it and the map is around 6500 brushes
-
Node without a volume usually means there is an entity with it's origin in the void. Although I can't see the usual leaked message that accompanies it and it shouldn't cause a crash to desktop, so maybe it's something else.
Sometimes if you try to delete entities they remain somehow without a model. To find them look in the entity list and search for entities without a model (that means they don't have a + next to it).
i couldnt find anything suspicious all the ones i found withoout the [+] were lights

okay i think i sent it to him :]

i want to vote for cry of fear 2 T-T
but ill vote darkmod ofcourse :]

I've got no problems with making you a beta mapper, as you seem to have endurance, unlike many others who have been showing up only to vansh again after a short time.
Please send New Horizon a PM and point him to this thread here, he will be able to set you up as Beta Mapper soon.
how do i pm New Horizon?

Looks nice Theothesnopp. I like the brown/red interior and the way into that section, under the ground.
You've got my vote for betamapper status.
ty =)
