Hi, I'm working on a map (ripe_pickings_5) and have compiled and tested many times before using CoDBuilder. However this time it doesn't seem to be working - the recent changes I've made won't appear on the map when I test it. Here's the compile log: Quote: Entity 0, Brush 259: degenerate plane FloatPlane: bad normal FloatPlane: bad normal Entity 0, Brush 260: degenerate plane FloatPlane: bad normal FloatPlane: bad normal

C:\Arquivos de programas\CoD Builder 0.77 Beta>pause I can see that apparently there are some problematic brushes around the map. I used the 'Find brush...' feature on CoDRadiant to find some of these brushes, and while I could find most of them most of them seemed to be invisible - I could only see the red area on the left part of the screen, at the scale bar. There didn't seem to be nothing wrong with the ones I could identify, though. I really can't figure out what's up with these "degenerate plane" brushes, does anybody have an idea? Thanks in advance. :)

That's not your biggest problem This is: code bug: triangulation failed! Basically... it means you're in trouible. This error could be almost anything. Look for things you added since your last working compile. Terrain or complex brushworks. As for the degenerate plane errors: http://www.modsonline.com/index.php?mod=MapErrors&op=verr&id=25 If oyu can see them in 2d but not in 3d there is definately something wrong and you should delete and remake them.

Damn... I just scanned the map for everything I could find wrong, found a few overlapping brushes, deleted them and even deleted pretty much every change I had made since the last succesful compiling, even whole terrain parts. Then I tried compiling it multiple times afterwards, but no luck. Could the 'triangulation failed!' code bug be related to the 'degenerate plane' error? I didn't have time to delete all of them yet... Also, is there a way to delete more than 1 of these brushes at once? Thanks for the reply, Caretaker.

I've found that 'triangulation failed!' mainly relates to dodgy patches and 'degenerate plane' relates to dodgy brushes. As to the other question 'delete more than 1 of these brushes at once?' Yer, select all the onces you want to get rid of and then press 'backspace'

Nope, you'll have to delete them all one at a time. The triangulatoin failed and the degenerate plane errors might be related. Try it. Delete the degenerate plane brushes and compile it to see.

Ok, sorry, I get where he's coming from now with all the degenerate plane brushes. Yep, as Mr Caretaker says, tis a slow and leborious task but they have to be done one at a time edited on Sep. 2, 2005 06:05 pm by RRRScorpion

Ok... Now I've just noticed one thing, I can delete the same brush over and over and over again. I use 'Find brush...' and type in the brush number, delete it and repeat, and the same brush is still there and I have to delete it. Also, everytime I compile it seems to point out to different brushes everytime, as well as some of the ones I supposedly already deleted. That probably means I'm definitely in trouble, doesn't it? I really hope there's a solution to that, otherwise I'll probably get so frustrated that I'll never open Radiant again lol Thanks again for the replies.

It's pointing to different brushes because when you've deleted some and saved it, it's renumbering the ones that are left. Try saving the compile log as a text doc on ya desktop as reference and then keep going down the list till you've deleted all the ones in the text log, then recompile

I just deleted all the brushes that are pointed out in the compile log (including some parts of the map that I didn't have any problems with before, which looked perfectly fine), saved as a new file, but still got the 'degenerate plane' problem on the log, and the triangulation is still failing. After I compiled, it pointed out to different brushes that weren't pointed out before. As for the brushes being renumbered after each compile, that makes sense, but aren't they renumber right after I delete one of them? For example, if I delete, say, brush #134, wouldn't the next brush (#135) be renumbered as #134 after deletion? I'm asking that because I can delete the same brush (the degenerate ones, that are giant) multiple times without saving or compiling or anything. I just looked for brush #137 on the map, did not delete it nor saved, compiled it and looked for the same #137, and it pointed out a different brush! Why is that? This is truly bizarre, one time it's all working well and the next I get all of these errors... Is there still hope for this thing I've been working on? Anyway, thanks for the help.

Nevermind, guys... I tried a couple more times, compiled and it finally worked. There are still some of those 'degenerate plane' errors on the compile log, but the triangulation was successful and the map was updated when I tested. Thanks once again for the help, fellas.
