I dunno, this editor is like a game, The farther you get on your map, the more errors you get and the more difficult it is to complete it... Anywhooo... I'm getting these errors now. When I compile the map, textures that I had used before suddenly seem to not exist anymore. ********************* Material 'ma_wood_pinewoodend' is missing Material 'ma_wall_drywall01' is missing Material 'ma_wall_drywall01' is missing Material 'case256x512grey3' is missing -- This one repeats 54 times. ******************* How do I find these specific textures or the brush they are attached to? Also, when I try to compile reflections, it hangs for a bit then says: ******************* SCRIPT RUNTIME ERROR (see console for details) CANNOT SWITCH ON UNDEFINED ********************* When I check the console, none of the sounds can be found. So what gives?

You can find the textures by searching through your map file in a text editor, and then look at the brush number comment. Here's an example brush: Code: // brush 25 { ( 554 459 -19 ) ( 564 459 -19 ) ( 564 469 -19 ) mantle_on 64 64 -192 192 0 0 lightmap_gray 16384 16384 0 0 0 0 ( 565 469 9 ) ( 565 459 9 ) ( 555 459 9 ) mantle_on 64 64 -192 192 0 0 lightmap_gray 16384 16384 0 0 0 0 ( 506 512 13 ) ( 515 512 13 ) ( 515 512 45 ) mantle_on 64 64 -192 -8 0 0 lightmap_gray 16384 16384 0 0 0 0 ( 512 512 9 ) ( 452 484 9 ) ( 512 512 41 ) mantle_on 64 64 -192 -8 0 0 lightmap_gray 16384 16384 0 0 0 0 ( 452 484 52 ) ( 448 512 52 ) ( 452 484 84 ) mantle_on 64 64 -192 -8 0 0 lightmap_gray 16384 16384 0 0 0 0 ( 452 512 52 ) ( 456 484 52 ) ( 452 512 84 ) mantle_on 64 64 -192 -8 0 0 lightmap_gray 16384 16384 0 0 0 0 } In the editor use Misc > Find brush... The example above would be Entity number 0, Brush number 25. Click OK and the editor will take you to the origin of that brush. If you have destructible models in your map without defining all of the "parts" in your fastfile, I'm sure this is what is causing the reflections error. You need to set up your destructible models first before doing reflections.

Already thought of this but the texture is missing, so it doesn't exist in the map. I tried using FIND/FIND NEXT, even using individual parts of the filename but they're not in there. Thus, the FIND BRUSH won't help without a referenced brush number.

You need to set up your destructible models first before doing reflections. Please, do tell how? Or please point me in the right direction to find out how.

UPDATE; So I had destructible vehicles in there and took them out. Recompiled reflections and still got the error. This is what the console looks like: And that goes on for what looks like every sound in the game.

My first suggestion would be to re-install if the software can't find its own game files. But wait until others are logged on to get a second or third opinion. Lots of people have had problems with the tools, so don't feel isolated.
