ive been working on my map a lot lately and i never have problems with doing Bsp fullvis so i can see my map. but today i wanted to see my map again so i did bsp fullvis but this time radiant didnt make changes in the .bsp file. it only changed the .map .lin and .bak files. i also tried to save it under a new name but when i did this radiant didn't even create a .bsp file. so i can't see the changes i make to my map in the game, only in radiant because radiant opens the .map file. can anyone help me please ?

Hi Sounds like you have made a brush error or something similar It is preventing the BSP process finishing You may need to revert back to an earlier version of the map if you have one Try making a big solid box around all your map - then try full-vis - this will test if it has a hole/ leak etc (which should really show up during the vis process)

yeah you must be right because i tried something new i never tried before which is making gametype_players and giving them entities. i deleted all of them after i got this problem but it did not solve it. with a big box do you just mean 4 walls built around my whole map and then try bsp fullvis again? what and where will i see the error? thnx for helping

Hi If you build the box around your map and then try full-vis...and it works - then the error is almost certainly a leak in the map Radiant usually finds this during the vis process and illustrates it with a red line showing the leak position If (which I think is more likely) you have a brush or entity error - it is usually the best solution to revert to an earlier map version and try again

Ok i just found out i dont have any backups of the .map file of my map only of the .bsp file. but you cant open a .bsp file with radiant is that right? so this basicly means im screwed and i cant continue working on my map? well i can work on it in radiant but i can never open it in sof again right? i hope there is another solution for me to fix this else im kinda screwed.

Hi Try selecting all the visible brushes / entities in your map - then copy/paste them to a new map You may be able to use "select inside" to select many brushes at one time
