Hi all,
I know, it's a common problem that many other mappers have encountered and there are many topics all over the internet, and I have read all of them with all the replies and possible solutions. But.......I still cannot solve my problem. I tried with hint / skip (but I don't know how to properly use them), moved entire sections of the map to make it more compact, removing stuff etc but nothing. It reaches a certain point while at BuildVisLeafs (say 4..) then says "Finished. Press a key to continue."
If I uncheck all the func_details the compiler works, same when I split the map in smaller areas with the cordon tool, but all together it won't. I checked all the vertices and they look all aligned to the grid (in my previous campaign Pesaro there are sooooo many unaligned brushes in all the maps and I never had this problem). If you have tried the first map of Pesaro 2 you can see that it's quite a large open area and I didn't do much optimization, but it runs well (I mean, the compiler does its job).
I tried to set the Far Z clip plane on the fog_controller at 1500, and it works, but of course it's not ok to be played like this.
Is there anyone that would like to spend like 10 minutes taking a look at my map and telling me the mistakes I've made? I can send you the link to download the .vmf and all the materials and models I've used.
Here's the compile log, but I've done / seen worse and they all work =P now this is with the hint / skip brushes. Without them, the numportals are around 2000; however, same result.
