So.. I made a simple map in TileGen (cus I'm lame) and I played it with no problems so I exported it. I opened up the exported VMF in hammer, touched up the corners and other bits that needed it then tried to compile the finished product but the compile failed, so I created a new map that was just a spawn room capped all the way 'round and tried to compile it without touching it but it still fails. I am running the compiler in expert mode.

Both times the last couple lines in the logs are:

reading c:\program files (x86)\steam\steamapps\common\alien swarm\swarm\maps\output.bsp
reading c:\program files (x86)\steam\steamapps\common\alien swarm\swarm\maps\output.prt
LoadPortals: couldn't read c:\program files (x86)\steam\steamapps\common\alien swarm\swarm\maps\output.prt

But I can compile the example maps without a problem :confused:

I had the exact same problem and I couldn't figure out why, what I did was start a new map and it worked for me. I reinstalled it first though and just remade my map into the SDK

I have reinstalled the SDK but it still doesn't work.

I got it and it's working. Thats for your patience, as you may have noticed my mapping experience is extremely limited. :(
