I am useing textures 256x256, beasting pc, my level is small, one building, a 4 level cathedral. Where can I find info on how large a level may be, as far as quants on the grid is conserned..? The tutorial seems to lack this info and the manual seems to be hiding this info in invisable ink.. Ok, been messing around with the compiler. It only gives me this message when I build in BSP, Never get it in simple mode. Mwhy? Last edited by Sleepy; 05/29/11 23:03.

Then might wonder what the "virtual memory" is set on the machine... Have you set yor virtual memory as high as possable? Go into the "Control Panel"... Then click on "System"... Then click on "Advanced"... Then find the "Performance / Settings" button and click on it... Then click on the "Advanced" tab... Then click on the "Virtual Memory / Change" button... Then look at and read that info and MAX OUT THE VIRTUAL MEMORY ! That might help... Good Luck...

I will push it up as far as it will go, but I was under the impression it would slow loading levels by doing that. Set it to 300000 MB still no help... even changed ALL the textures to the default texture just to see... still get the same error when building.. Only thing else I can think of is something running in the background, could Kaspersky be the problem....?... Last edited by Sleepy; 05/31/11 04:43.

Quad made the suggestion I thought of as I read your stats post... If you can... let us have a look at your level... If you let Quad look at it.... he'll get to the bottom of your trouble.... (That offer is nice of you Quad !) But I'm willing to have a peek too.... I'll just have another cup a coffee and have at it too ! Tunisod, pour me a cup will ya. Ya got any Kahlua to go with that?
