According to your compile log, windows is being denied access...

Not sure how to fix that myself, but try submitting your compile log to Interlopers, they've got the best compile-related stuff around:

The error very often occurs, because no BSP file is created during compile and so Windows can't find any BSP file to copy from the mapsrc directory to the game's maps directory.
The reason for this is most often spaces or special letters in the VMF's name (like "my map.vmf" or "mymäpñ.vmf" - only thing that is ok would be "my_map.vmf"), but can also be some serious errors in the map itself.

First check your VMF's name and if everything's ok with it then you might post the whole compilelog here or upload it somewhere for us to download it.

Your current path for the compile tools is

Code: Select all

steamaps\username\sourcesdk\bin\*.exe

But it has to be

Code: Select all

steamapps\username\sourcesdk\bin\ep1\bin\*.exe

if you map for oc 1.23

or

Code: Select all

steamapps\username\sourcesdk\bin\orangebox\bin\*.exe

if you want to make your map for oc 1.3 (only needed if you use orangebox content, maps compiled with ep1 compilers will still work in 1.3.)

If that doesnt work, post the whole compilelog and your gameinfo.txt.

Thankyou,and everyone else who has posted

Edit:How Do i change the path?

Post your whole compile log, bsp not being created usually means one of the steps failed.

First want to say that i made a typo in my post, its not gameinfo.txt, i meant GameConfig.txt.

And to change paths, you either do it directly in hammer by clicking Tools -> options -> build programs

or directly modify the GameConfig.txt which is located in sourcesdk\bin\ep1\bin

Or (like in this case) all of them
First he has got to fix the paths (I actually overlooked this and only reported the most common cause for this error message... thank you for your close look, worfox) and if it still doesn't work then we'll see how to go on
