**PLZ NOTE IAM SORRY FOR THE SWEARING**

before u say it i know what this error means
MAX_MAP_MIPTEX is when you used all of your 4MB texture memory
however i have bot used that many textures and ive heard you can increase it to 8MB

these are the amount of TOTAL textures i have used

i have used many more texture before on other maps and even some of my own WAD's

but this has really stumpd me <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

on and iam using the original WON halflife because when steam came out i was only allowed my email as a user account name and Hammer dose not like the @ in rthe folder so steam cannot compile my maps

    Odd, I have an @ in my account name also and I am able to compile. Although, I do have the entire compile happening in my hammer editor maps folder. Are you using the batch compiler?

    when i try and compile the map on steam it places the map with the steam accound folder and names it after my email eg bla@bla.com.bsp

    Have you read the FAQ on how to run Hammer with Steam/WON NS?

    to increase the texture data size, you have to modify your compile settings. add this line to all of your compile tools paramaters (csg, bsp, rad, vis)

    -texdata 8192

    that will increase the texture limit to 8 MB, you can set that number larger, but for the people that have videocards with small amounts of memory will cause problems for them.

    in your compile settings you have to add it as a paramater

    it looks different because your using the new version of hammer for hl2, not the old hammer 3.5 for hl1

    also what the hell are you using the original compile tools for? thats probably why it doesnt work in the first place, some of those tools are dated back to when hl first came out.

    get zoners compile tools or xpcagey compile tools, and that should clear that up. because those old compile tools probably dont even have the -texdata command in them.

    and you have to have "-texdata 8192" on every compile command.

    that includes:

    csg
    vis
    bsp
    rad

    reading all the tutorials never worked for me, I never made it to compile a map into my maps folder, no matter what. till one day: I started using nems batch compiler.
    so do yourself a favour, dl it and start using it. its very easy to use, every command is explained in a understandable way. and its much faster than vhe. never believd it myself but obviously I was wrong all the years <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    could u post a link to that batch compiler? that way he doesn't have to search it up and take like half an hour looking through the results.
