Can someone please tell me WTF clip_nosight_nothing is all about in the compiler. It does give me a .bsp file, but when I try and play/test it, the whole game crashes and creates the xml data file to be sent off to god knows where.

This is what it actually looks like in the compiler.

I though that this was a texture, but I can't see it any where in my map. I have removed all 2 customer textures but it still does it. I have also had a problem with the lighting, so I removed that as well, but I have still got it.

What does it all mean........???????

Well, I can't tell you what it is. But I can tell you that I've gotten the same error on my compile logs with no adverse affects whatsoever. So it's probably not your problem.

Found out what clip_nosight_nothing is all about.

It's the 3 level bunkbed model.

I have deleted everything 1 by one, until the warning stopped appearing in the compiler.

It was the bunkbed that was causing it.

bit of a bummer that the game crashes out, just after it's loaded the map.

Guess I will have to start the whole map again, unless someone knows why it does this and has the fix.

That clip is to do with lots of models. If the model contains the clip_nosight_nothing, it will not load that model (check the bottom of Radiant after loading a model to see if it worked or failed). I have the same problem, but have not got around to looking for a solution.
