map wont load!


(sfx lawz) #1

ok, after finding out everything i needed from these forums, i got a map fully running, i could run in it, i got a dynamitble wall working, i got scripting working, i got a cp working, aswell as a constructbile mg, but theres just one little problem… after i had made a spawn flag, i complied, opened et, did the usual stuff and… THE MAP WOULDNT LOAD!!! :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

it goes to connecting screen, connecting to local host, awaiting challenge, and just stays like that. it doesnt load, it doesnt say warning: you have screwed up your map, it doesnt DO anything, just stays on that screen, ive waited 30 mins, come back and it still hasnt loaded! my pc hasnt forzen, cause i press esc and et goes to main menu. i even made another map, with simply the basics in it, and even that didint load!

i have no idea whats wrong, i deleted the spawn flag and its scrpting from my map and it doesnt load then either. i would greatly appreciate any help anyone could give me!

I think the reason for this is that there are to many pk3 files in the etmain directory.

We need a FAQ thread… we really do.

i dont really have all that many .pk3 files, do you think if i uninstalled et, and reinstalled, my map might load again?

I haven’t got a clue what the problem is.
But if you think about a re-installation:
Instead of a simply re-installation just make a seperate installation for mapping.

Always a good idea, IMO.
