I cannot compile

By Ezekiel. 2 years ago

I was able to compile a couple of days ago. However, once I loaded up my map to play it would run an older version of it. So, I saved the .vmf into another directory and tried to compile that way. It creats a .vmx and a text document, but no .prt or .bsp file.

The command failed. Windows reported the error: "The system cannot find the file specified."

It says it's trying to open a bsp? Why is that? It's probably the reason to why it would run an old map file when compiling using the old directory.

    Error: displacement found on a(n) func_detail entity - not supported
    Displacements cannot be entities, select all your displacements and move them to world - you can use auto visgroups to make this easier.

    Ezekiel.

    I moved my displacements to world and it's finally working. Thanks, Lost - you're the best.

    But what does auto visgroups do and where do I find it in hammer?

    I believe it lets you select all objects in a certain class, e.g. all entities, all displacements, all world brushes etc. And I haven't touched hammer in a while, so I can't tell you where to find it, sorry. D:

    There is a module on the right panel labeled Visgroups, there is a tab underneath it to view the automatically created ones and not just ones you've created.
