Map crashing issues

[banes]

Hey.  Still having problems here.  Think one of the mods could move this over into the tech support area where it belongs?

uh how bout you just start a new thread in the correct area and copy over your original post you lazy newb

It seems that there is a hard coded model/skin size for items, at least for glQuake2. Odds are you are dealing with a custom model that has exceeded the limits. My unofficial source tells me: Any skin larger than 512x256 causes the error. I understand that this is only caused by 3dfx processor based cards.
There is a hard limit of 480 tall on the skins. If you place a skin taller than that you receive a Skin taller than 480 error message

Normally this error is due to 'textures' (usually custom) being too large. (I frequently had this error when mapmaking). However Aerowalk is working for everyone - and has no custom textures, as far as I know.

the quote points that it might be a problem with "models", perhaps you modified the model you are using, and combined with the map, produces this error?

Otherwise it could be your vid card. Try running the map in Standard vid to see if it really is. There is also the option '8-bit textures' in the Video Settings, might have to do with that.

Last you can always delete the .bsp and re-download it individually - perhaps the file got corrupted when download the whole pack.

Hope it works out.

I figured it out finally.  I think my pak0.pak was slightly corrupt, and copying over the one from the disc solved the problem.

Thanks to everyone for their input on this problem.  Except banes.

It's just a shame we have 22-year-old-still-living-with-parents-don't-have-a-job-or-a-life-clown-faggot (bundle of sticks) here otherwise these forums would be alot better.
eeemmecks don't listen to Banes - he only calls people 'newb' because he knows he's such a loser himself.
