Source 2007 maps problem

JaCoL · 06-24-2012, 06:35 AM

Hello, im developing coop mod and we just decided to move from Source 2007 to Alien Swarm branch. The problem is, i need to port all maps that i alerdy maded (i dont really want to spend another 20 hours on recreaing them) and when i want to open a 2007 map in regular alien swarm hammer it gives me those errors:

Shot on two Alien Swarm Hammer runtime errors

Im mapping since 2006 and to be honest this is my first big problem since like 2009 xd Yeah, even skilled deasigners can experience sup error :>

I tried many things but it didn't helped at all, i tried to port map in parts and some parts were working good, other was giving me same error, the structres are pretty simple so far so im kind of suprised by this kind of stuff.

Any help on it would be great, thanks in advance.

I wish I could help.
DId you try reinstall the SDK?
Reboot system
Clear registry for errors?

yeah, i expected something like this would b happening to ppl. alien swarm hammer is a bit optimized to 3rd person stuff, so i'm sure something on ur map breaks it, if u made the map in regular source.

i can offer no direct help, but my only proposal would b to do some troubleshooting... aka deleting stuff from a map step by step and every time checking if a step helped it load. with some luck and deduction u will get to the ground cause, a discovery which would b a great thing to share with other ppl here, since we have many mods lately [no wonder rly, since valve is using the same base for dota2].

u may wanna contact some of authors of the latest alien swarm mods on moddb, i'm sure some of them might have xp the same issue.

there is some entity, texture or model file present in your map and\or in the alien swarm folder that causes such proble. You need to find a problem entity or file that's causing this.
I had such a problem when I had a lot of different custom models in my Alien Swarm folder.
