Hi...

I have a realy big map. It doesnt have any complex objects.

When i try to compile it, i get error MAX_MAP_LEAFFACE....... :banghead:

How can i compile this?
I am wondering if i can somehow split my map in more pieces,
compile the pieces and then put them in one BSP file.
If this (or something else) can be done i would be most greatefull
if you could help.
:banana:

Thank you

are you using the caulk hull method of building maps?

could be you have too many structural brushes and not enough detail.

Hi,

yes...i use this method....
But what do you mean not enough detail?

If it makes any difference...
I can compile with '-leaksonly' flag, or default compile...
but when i use '-game ja' (only one i tried) i get the error.

So...is it possible to compile map in stages (many small maps = one big map)?

Thank you

any brushes that aren`t touching the outside void and aren`t needed to block vis, should I think be made detail.

ydnar or some of the other guys here will know more about this then I do, including whether your other question is possible or not.

hi,

there is a part in the compile log saying:

327 detail brushes

i think such a map shoould have more detail brushesl. to make a brush detail:

1. select a brush
2. press Ctrl + M

to turn on and off detail brushes in the viewports press Ctrl + D

everything that is small in the map should be made detail

this tutorials about hint brushes might help you to understand the vis process:

and btw... my rtcw map natterbase had 19064 brushes and was 8192 x 9216 x 4608 untis big. and it compiled fine (except that i had to watch the maximum t-juctions of 64K)
