When trying to open the map in worldcraft, you don't even have to run Check for problems. It straight away says "4 brushes were not loaded due to errors in the map file" - which is almost certainly brushes worldcraft considers invalid shapes. I think they were somewhere in the rock sections - doesn't mean that the map won't compile but might be worth looking to see which ones it doesn't like. 

The brushes which caused the compiler warnings were 1 near the start, one at the SK door, and 2 in the pipes near the red key door. makes 4, right?

Map loads without warning in any editor (now).

its just the .prt file that has these issues, maybe what rebb said due to detail brushes?

What do i know... 

While I don't post here, so forgive me, I do read quite often... I opened the map up in WC, as suggested above, and did the "check map for problems", it reported there were quite a few "mixed face contents" errors. Don't know if that's worth anything?!

I loved the map btw, mfx maps always delivers :) 

Usually means liquid brushes touching sky ones, which is a problem for all compilers. Ricky is right in any case wc does have a very robust error checking system.

Mfx, I'm not sure if the try utils your using will have all the latest fixes. I'll upload to 'the folder' the ones I'm using. It's possible they're already there but I don't think so. Tyrann has squashed a few bugs there while I was putting together Telefragged. Probably not anything that'd cause a difference if it is mixed face contents - like I say, no Quake compiler lets you mix brush types in that way that I know of.

Annoying, but built into the format afaik. Or was never considered enough of a show stopper to warrant a fix :)

Trees tomorrow! That's 200 epic win points... 

caused by brushes which are liquidtextured (*prefix), AND have skipped faces, like on the bottom. I tthink the lava illusionaries i used for the layer effect are such kind of brushes. not crtical i guess.. 

..let me tell you i�ve got the tree now working, thanks to the misc_model code provided by... YOU!
Yes, it even works for the cables...
will shut up now.. 

Yeah, that's the other one, where the error actually describes the problem.

Non critical? Well, you live and learn... spose the bsp doesn't care about faces that have been removed. 

Is this a problem: http://www.inchoate.com/temp/mixedfacevoid.jpg 

brushes shouldn�t overlap or intersect each other, i once read long ago.
but they can, and in this case one of them is liquid, so thats no problem.

imagine underwater part of maps like, well negkes dm 456 remix for example. one would go insane tryin to fill the pools with brushes of water, and the brushcount would reach limits soon.

qbsp treats liquids in a different way, thats all i know... 

I pointed it out cause along with overlapping it's "touching" the void? I don't think liquids are to do that. Also, I backspaced and deleted it, and BAM, there was another brush just like it in the same location... at least I think that's the way it was. Just letting you know/help, not trying to be a pain. 

will check that, thanks! 

BAH, nevermind. I'm sorry seems it's not like that as far as duplicate brushes, grrr... 

Of any type can touch the void, won't cause any problem. The exception being brush entities - these won't seal you from the void. They can still touch it though, as long as you've got some other normal brush sealing it.

Water has no problem touching void as mfx says, and brushes can definitely overlap without issue. 

Played on easy first felt well balanced finished in 11 mins. Played on skill 3 felt well balanced a gain died halfway ;). Tried to do a speedrun grr75^)&^)!!&* just a couple of pixels keep me from taking a nice shortcut :) 

might help me out but havent find those...any demos posted have all secrets? cba to watch m all :) I found (in order of play):

-ammo on crates
-GL in crate
-plasma gun
-red armor
-ammoroom with secret button for:
-SNG
-trinity 

Spoiler alert!

YA near the first sentinels in a shootable grate
at the lift.

MH in a rocky hideaway after the first Edie encounter(which is nearly impossible to find, watch out for a small ledge on the left side;)

Would have liked to see a demo from you, and yeah i know where those pixels are, you speedrunning enigma:) 

9:22
110/113
7/9

if someone could hint me the last two secrets i might redo and upload demo 

should refresh before posting :) 

actualy found that ya first time looking around, but forgot about it when trying the run 

Never say you understand what pixels are on my mind! I will go through deep psychological processes wich will take me through stages of delirium, psychosis halucination but in the end willresult in some twisted revelation of completly silly route choice just to proove you wrong!

Nunc est bibendum!

a.k.a this isnt the fastest route but i liked it 

I liked it too:)
Will shut up now... 

9/9 secrets on my first play! of course i derped after grabbing the megahealth. i'd record a demo if i didn't die so much.

Was missing a bunch of kills the whole time, the cells triggering the voreling was a dark secret to me a long time,good thing found it in time to be able to work tomorrow :)

Couldnt sleep was like lets have a coupel trys on that impossible trick, plop after 10 mins of play i got it ofcourse on a pretty poor try, one real mistake and well, damn that grunt! Oh wel atlast didnt screw up end :)

was kinda hoping he would boost those couple pixels i was still looking for instead he costed me a couple secs.
