Just read the stickies at the top of this forum.. 2 People have recently posted tutorials on how to set up WC to compile... Obviously you did not read at all.. The answer is very easy to find.

 

[Messiah Daz]

Oh ok then I read your post with all the links and got that zoners compile thing thats what I was told to use but its just a bunch of files i know nothing about :S

 

[Jaredster]

okokokok, you do this.

1. Make a map

2. place a info_player_start

3. Place a info_good_start

4. Place a info_evil_start

5. Goto compile.

6. Click compile.

P.S. you may of not set it up right.

Compile

Download Zoner's Half-Life Compile Tools, Install Them In C:\ZHTL

Make A Batch File (A .txt Renamed To .bat)

Also you might wanna pick up Kamikaze Wufei's Hull File pack for ESF (Choose A Hull File To Match Your Map & Put It In Your ZHLT Folder -- And Rename It To Replace The Default One). You Can Get The Hull File Pack HERE

That Contains The Following Information:

C:\zhlt\hlcsg -nowadtextures MAPNAMEGOESHERE -wadautodetect -texdata 8192 -high %1
C:\zhlt\hlbsp -texdata 8192 -high %1 MAPNAMEGOESHERE
C:\zhlt\hlvis -texdata 8192 -high -estimate -full %1 MAPNAMEGOESHERE
C:\zhlt\hlrad -texdata 8192 -high -extra -smooth -estimate %1 MAPNAMEGOESHERE



Then Run The Batch File (Make Sure Your Map Is In The ZHLT Folder)

[Mr. Satans]

Heh, you're welcome. But I don't know everything, I am still a n00b @ mapping.

 

[Messiah Daz]
