weird error on trying a custom map?

The map could be trying to precache files (sound or model or something of that sort) on loading of the map. I guess the map thinks the files should be in a msc/mod directory, which of course they arent. Try making a new folder in msc called mod and then seeing what error it gives you.

nope not even...

look to make sure all of your MSC files are actually there ceriux...i noticed once that alot of my models had gone missing when i had to download them from hellsdiner - along with helena.bsp....after which i re-installed MSC...because everything was messed up...

dunno what causes those files to go missing, but they apparently do sometimes just randomly disappear :\

It's saying it can't find a model you put on the map, check your env_sprites and env_models. You probably let Hammer point to it for you via browse rather than typing in the entry name manully, and it pointed to the wrong place.

i just decided to delete the model files and just test with out them till im finished then ill add them .
