im a begginer and i was building my first level for an RPG in WED and when i compiled it i got an error at the very end saying-

CRITICAL ERROR

Error E111- Visibility overrun

or a message along those lines....

any help please?!?!?!

ok tell me about your level. also what version of GS you have.

well i have version A6.5 - commercial edition

well my level is not very big at all but i do have a lot of lighting. it starts out in a cave and then moves on into a large, greek style room and then out onto a walkway and from the walkway you can see water which i gt from teh standard.wad collection, but there is a lot of it.

The weirdest thing though is that it gives me that error and tells me to press any key to abort, then wen i run the level everything is there except the lights. everything had been updated except the lights, so i just updated the lights by themselves and it worked. i just am wondering what that message meant.

i hope thats everything u wanted 2hear!

BeGGiners LUCK

normally this means that the level is too complex for the visibility to be calculated. That means that you actually did bad level design and you should fix that. Removing way too complex blocks and replacing them by models, for instance.

okay ill try that, but there rnt 2 many complex blocks. i have used a lot of prefabs and stuff,

like what blocks should i take out??

thanx a ton tho!!! u guys help so much!

The prefabs, they are crap, and they use way too much performance and anything.. they are framerate and build-time killers.

so just make my own models of the things i have used prefabs for?

yes

You could import the wmp inside MED and save it as mdl instead of making them from scratch, if that was what you meant with "so just make my own models of the things i have used prefabs for.." Don't know if it will be efficient though.
