Alright guys, I know this is a relatively simple script but I'm having trouble getting it to work properly. I just need to know what's wrong and how to fix it, and any help will be most appreciated!

As soon as I use my lift, or try to, I get this error

Script Runtime Error (see console for details) Undefined is not an entity

The errors I read in console are as follows:

ERROR: Could not load rawfile "maps/createfx/mp_Office_Building_fx.gsc"

ERROR: File not found: maps/createfx/mp_Office_Building_fx.gsc

******* script runtime error *******

Those errors repeat 3 times in console, after such these errors follow:

ERROR: Could not load rawfile "vision/mp_Office_Building.vision".

ERROR: Couldn't open 'vision/mp_Office_Building.vision'.

******* script runtime error *******

And that's every error I get from my map in console. The GSC file for my map is below

GSC file

main()
{


maps\mp\_load::main();

// this line sends the game into the other file called 'mp_Office_Building_wall1_activate.gsc'
// when 'wall1_up_trigger' is pressed and then runs the lines in that file

maps\mp\mp_Office_Building_lift1_activate::main();


// This creates a fairly dense fog which is generally grey and miserable.
setExpFog(300, 1200, 0.34, 0.36, 0.36, 0);

game["allies"] = "sas";
game["axis"] = "russian";
game["attackers"] = "axis";
game["defenders"] = "allies";
game["allies_soldiertype"] = "woodland";
game["axis_soldiertype"] = "woodland";

setdvar( "r_specularcolorscale", "5" );
setdvar("compassmaxrange","2000");

}

The Lift Script File, which I got from this sites lift tut, is below. I did change the movez to movex because the info in the file stated for up and down movement, x was the correct variable. If I've made ANY mistake, please correct me. I just want to get this map working!

GSC Lift Script File

main()
{
thread player_mp_Office_Building_lift1_activate();
}



player_mp_Office_Building_lift1_activate()
{


// this line tells the game that there is an entity in the map called ' lift1_up '

lift1_up=getent("lift1_up","targetname");


// this line tells the game that there is an entity in the game called ' lift1_up_trigger '
lift1_up_trigger=getent("lift1_up_trigger","targetname");



while(1)
{


// this line says ' wait until the trigger is pressed ' and then execute the code below
lift1_up_trigger waittill ("trigger");



// this line says, when the trigger is pressed, move ' lift1_up ' 40 units
lift1_up movex (618,3,1,1);


// thie line says ' pause ' for 5 seconds
wait(5);

// this line says, when the trigger is pressed, move ' lift1_up ' - 40 units

lift1_up movex (-618,3,1,1);


// pause again for 5 seconds
wait(5);

}
}


// other commands are ' movey and movez '
// using movey - moves the object left and right
// using movex - moves the object up and down
// using movez - moves the object diagonally

// not sure which moves which, but youll see once youve run the game

If you guys need me to load my globallogic.gsc file, I will, but just as a heads up, the thing is quite a read.

It appears to be defined in the script you've shown, so check that you have defined it in radiant. So you need a script_brushmodel with lift1_up set as the targetname.

Entity:
Key: classname Value: trigger_use_touch
Key: cursorhint Value: HINT_ACTIVATE
Key: target Value : lift1_up
Key: targetname Value: lift1_up_trigger

As for all the script_brushmodel

Entity:
Key: classname Value: script_brushmodel
Key: target name Value: wall1_up
Key: target Value: lift1_up_trigger

So in radiant your lift part has the targetname of wall1_up. The script is looking for a lift1_up, so change it to that. See if that works

Well, I switched wall1_up to lift1_up. Didn't work. I switched target name lift1_up to lift1_up_trigger, and target lift1_up to lift1_up_trigger on 2 different loads of the map. None of these worked. I'm getting really frustrated with this. I did everything the tut said and still no lift. :/ Is it possible that if I tried to script more than 1 brush_model to a single trigger that it wouldn't work? I made an elevator looking lift with multiple brushes. Do I have to only have one brush scripted to the trigger?

*Update*
I changed it to exactly what I had it the first time WITHOUT enable developer on, instead of getting the script runtime error, the lift just won't move. I press use when the hint comes up and no movement or anything whatsoever. I'll do some tweaking to see if I can figure things out.

*Update*
I ran the game WITH and WITHOUT developer after making changes. WITH developer, I get the same error as always, WITHOUT, no error but the lift still doesn't work.

If you have multiple separate entities with the same targetname then getent wouldn't work as it is for only one entity.

If you select all the brushes at the same time and turn them into a script_brushmodel then it would identify as one entity. To check it works changing the targetname for one brush will change it for all the brushes of that entity.

Do you understand that? I probably didn't explain it particularly clearly.
