Ok, so i'm kinda new to cod4 level building with radiant & everthing was going sweet until today i loaded my map like usual to work onit & this came up:

ParseEntity: not found
getlasterror() = 0
An unrecorable error has occured. would you like to edit preferences
before exiting Q3Radiant?

I've tried a few things but nothing is working.

I also noticed this in the bottom white message box of radiant when the above error msg comes up.

missing "(" parsing brush

Now i believe this is fixable with help of a pro, or at least someone who knows what this is.

Please help as i don't want to start this all over as that would be awful, i've spent loads of time on this & it's about half way finished.

Plz help

Just tried a quick test and you seem to get this error because something has happend to the .map file. A missing ( it would seem like. PM me the map file and I'll see if i can find the error.

Or you back it up and open it with a text editor yourself and see if you ca find the problem,

i've pm'd you the file bud, i hope you can find the missing entity

At first i was "hoping" for there to be a large chunk of stuff missing in the map file, it would have made it easy to spot and hopefully solve, but that wasn't the case. So the only other alternative (if there is a actual { missing somewhere as the error suggests) is that it's somewhere in the 3200+ brushes... IE unreasonable to look for by hand.

You had some other errors in the map (node without volumes), fixed them but didn't do any difference. Didn't expect it to but had to try something. Let's hope someone with abit more .map error solving skills can help you instead.

cheers for looking for me, much appreciated.

what are the "nodes without volume" ?
what did i do to create them?

as to my original problem, i'm thinking it has to be near the end of my brushes 3200+ brushes as the error wasn't apparent before & i had only recently done more brush work (building walls & such)

ok, so i think i've fixed the problem by chance or pure luck!

i deleted a weird looking brush that was out of place & seem to have fixed it! thanks for your help bud, much appreciated, i wouldn't of found it if it wasn't for you
