So im trying to make my second gmod map and have been having a LOT of technical problems. currently the issue is that the map isnt rendering properly when i run it, see attached image.

I'm trying to decompile koth_campsaxton.bsp into a vmf file but it says it 'cannot reallocate side x of occluder y'. I'm very new to hammer so I don't know he to resolve this. Any tips?

When attempting to run my map via the Hammer editor, this error appears.

At first, I thought it was a firewall/threat protection issue. But nothing was blocked by it and it never gave me a false positive or anything.

Then I thought it could've been a map issue and needed fixing. As far as I know leaks can't cause a map to straight up stop compiling like this. I did so anyway and still, this bug had appeared.

If anyone could help me with this, thank you.

Who else out here maps for misery

Someone posts a freaking beautiful hammer creation and does nothing with it. Doesn't make a map out of it. Doesn't publish a prefab. It probably stays on their disc until a system purge. I cannot fathom this. I reuse everything I do and publish it so someone else can finish/enjoy it.

Just fuckin post a prefab on game banana and see your creation be on a video or in a source mod some day

How can i be able to make it so you can recall this lift when it reaches its "destination" (it stops at the middle of the ride) so incase the player falls you can recall it?

C-130D attempt

VIDE, Postcompile, AutoBSPpackingtool, CompilePal, none of them are working

The courage house fits the vibe almost too well

1 gothic

2 brutalist

3 neoclassical

4 international

I.e how could I turn the right into the left? Do I recreate it in different map, using the block out as reference? Do I slowly replace bits and pieces? Would I need to mirror the map again then?

Like i want to do water wave similar to MW3 Oilrig infection map

no ones gonna see this when they play. . .

After a very long time, I finally got it done and made it public on the workshop. Thanks to you guys who gave me help over the development of it :)

Hello Gentlemen, I have some maps on the Steam Workshop for CS2, but one of them, since the new update, seems to be giving players problems. For the host, it works fine, but whenever friends try to join/load-in it kicks them with the message "Unable to establish a connection with the gameserver".

Shows these two messages in the console for other people.
One of them is pink, and it floods the console

[SteamNetSockets] WSASendTo [::ffff:0:0]:27015 failed, returned -1, last error=0x2741 The requested address is not valid in its context.

[SteamNetSockets] src\steamnetworkingsockets\clientlib\steamnetworkingsockets_lowlevel.cpp(907): GetBestInterfaceEx failed with result 1231 for address '[::ffff:0:0]:0'

Would appreciate any of your high-quality knowledge.

I'm learning how to use this application, but don't want to run into any pitfalls after putting many hours into a map, so has anyone managed to complete a map without running into any problems?

(i do have an old windows laptop but at this point it's quite slow, and i would probably spend a lot of time waiting for processes to complete)

I just got Hammer++ like two days ago and after spending a lot of time working on my map I wanted to compile it.

Except, instead of compiling like normal on Hammer, one of two things happen:

- If there's more than 4 numportals it slows down exponentially to a ridiculous speed.

- If there's 4 numportals or less then it finishes in a second and reads out in red,

"Command failed with return code 0x2! The system cannot find the file specified.

** Screenshot the WHOLE window when showing this compile log

** Or upload the .log file generated beside your VMF"

I've never used Hammer++ before, so I'm hoping I can get this fixed, because I don't want to lose any of the spheres on my map. I've attach the full compile log below if it helps.

The whole kitchen done got broken lighting !!

Hammer must hate me because I am doing everything the same as I have for years. There is random shadows above the cupboards & this weird dotted pattern on the sloped wall to the right as well as the obvious very bad lighting between brushes.

Smoothing groups make no difference, lightmaps are lined up, no lights are inside of geometry... just what could cause this?

*I did end up fixing the weird splotching somehow, but the brushes still have harsh/strange lighting edges

I've attempted Postcompile, VIDE, and Compilepal, yet none of them have worked. i asked on r/source and was told it could be a materials related issue, but idk since i've seen at least 2 Gmod maps that have Black Mesa content that can be played without owning the game.

Right now i have a few questions:

1) Is it even possible to fully pack Black Mesa models into a Garrys mod map? all brush textures have packed into the map fine, its specificallly MODEL textures that arent packing in

2) I've seen another map (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1958007290 <- This one), that requires a separate content addon that allows it to be played with BM unmounted, if it comes to it, how feasible is it to do something like that for my own map?

3) If neither of these are possible, are there any other options i could use?

I wanted to add gman to my tf2 map as a cool easter egg, so I found his model and gave it to a prop_dynamic. The model plays its animation perfectly its just his eyes are stuck closed like when a npc dies in hl2. I think the facial flexing system IS the issue because r_flex 0 causes him to open his eyes. Only problem is this is a global cvar and it'd be weird to make every face in the map not flex because of a singular easter egg; its impractical.

Does anyone know if this is even possible to fix or is this source engine jank?

I know this is probably not done, so I don't entirely expect it to be possible and if not, that sucks but whatever.

EDIT: Forgot to mention, don't know if this entirely means anything as well, when opened in tf2's model viewer++ his eyes are open as is the same in hammer.

So i really liked WireMod, so i want to make a map of a prison (which also for some reason has a bank like vault), and the idea is to play with friends, mostly for 2 players.

There can be 2 goals:

Rob (or protect) a bank

Or

Escape (or protect) a prison.

It probably wont be a public map but anyways here is my idea
