my problem is that i keep getting these random entity leak errors during my bsp compile phase, which results in the creation of a .lin file. everywhere on the forum that i’ve read, the entity leak error is treated as a warning and is ignored, but for some reason in my case it seems to be preventing the creation of the .prt file used in the vis compile phase. So at the beginning of my vis compile phase, the 2.5.16 compiler tries to load the .prt file but can’t find it since it wasn’t created earlier and quits. this is a really big problem because as everyone probably knows, no vis compile typically results in incredibly bad frame rates.
i am in no way an advanced mapper like many people here so it is entirely possible that i’m diagnosing the problem wrong, but in a small test map that i made, the portalfile was created in my logfile at the same state where the entity leak is seen in my larger map. this is the only fact that i am using to base my diagnosis so as i previously stated i could be wrong. i’m using a .bat file that i saw on the site to “interface” with the compiler. any ideas on what is going wrong and any suggestions on how to fix it??
thanks in advance…
