Why is there a leak?[solved]

Detonator · May 29, 2011

In-game I can see a crack in the floor even though its just a whole brush :S

ablanantanalba · May 29, 2011

perhaps you can upload a screen of the hammer editor for that section? I think that might be helpful in solving your problem

Jenos · May 29, 2011

That is weird... have you tried replacing it? If that doesn't work try different textures.And post one of the grid views at least (preferably top view).

LadyMoOnLiGht · May 29, 2011

some reflectivity textures dont seal ...
try another texture (concrete or something) to test it

also load the pointfile, and show it here

"Map/Load Pointfile"

it draws a red line trough the leak

Acehigh · May 29, 2011

its a gfx bug what hammers at random in hammer i have had it once. replace the whole brush and try or place some kind of brush on top of it if it happens again.

does it happen every complie ?
does it say its a leak ?
have you loaded pointfile to test ?

test for differnt textures as said above.

Detonator · May 29, 2011

I have tested different textures, it happens at every compile, whenever i press load point file I get this:

Dunno if relevant, but I only have that texture on one face, the rest is no-drawed

EDIT:> I tried putting a brush on top of it and it still does the same thing again.

LadyMoOnLiGht · May 29, 2011

if there is no pointfile, then there is no leak ...
it is something else

Detonator · May 29, 2011

So I can't do anything?

You could sweep it under the rug
Put something on top of it, nobody will ever know

LadyMoOnLiGht · May 29, 2011

make a ingame screenshot,
cause i dont get what the problem is o.O

(topic says leak, but its no leak at all)

Detonator · May 29, 2011

I posted screenie above , see teh crack ingame and the brush in hammer? If the screenie is not clear I can get another one.

LadyMoOnLiGht · May 29, 2011

all i see is this Hammer screen, it shows me nothing

(you probably post the compile.log also)

LadyMoOnLiGht · Jun 1, 2011

at first do a fully compile (you did fast vis).
and second, check if this brush is on one of the red lines on the grid,
in 2d top view. (probably this crack is the red line, just an idea)

anyway, this is just a stanges thingy, i never saw before.

is this map original or a decompiled?

Detonator · Jun 1, 2011

Original, I'll try your suggestions when I get the chance.
EDIT :> Problem solved, the thing was that the desk was not snapped to gird, thanks for your help moonlight

LadyMoOnLiGht · Jun 1, 2011

ok, np

oh and for this fast vis thingy xD
there is only one reason people use it,
cause PortalFlow eats a damn lot of time..

i am right?

use more func_detail

PortalFlow should be not take longer than 1 to 30 seconds.

my actual map i work on:

787 portalclusters

Oh, I just used fast because I learned from youtube to use it until I'm compiling my final version of the map and that is when I use normal.

LadyMoOnLiGht · Jun 1, 2011

no no noooo

dont even learn from nooobs

just use full vis allways!!
if you are final, you prpbably will be surprised when PortalFlow start to eat 15 + HOURS!

i give you an nice example: zm_citylife
compiletime for Firewavezz 15 hours (yes i have him in steam, he told me this)

my version: tokes me 10 seconds xD .. ok, i really know what is to do,
but when you always use full compile, and it takes too long, you see there is something wrong

reduce compile time (special PortalFlow) means also give a lot ingame fps boost.

so, dont listen what noobs say

Detonator · Jun 1, 2011

So if I always compile using normal it will be faster in the end when I'm done ?

LadyMoOnLiGht · Jun 1, 2011

yes, and make it from the beginning fps/compile optimized.
i will show you an example for using func_detail

this is the map like it is, with func_detail on:

and so it looks like when i turn them off:

you see, only outside walls are solid/worldbrushes,
except this boxes i forgot to tie to func_det
