When i made my map on BSP (which will be great if it worked), when i compile the map to qbsp.bat and pressed a key to continue... It says on paintball 2:

can't find map/inprogress/mymap.bsp

why is it doing it?

Please post if you kno what's wrong
mattz,

Post what the big, black box says (command prompt window). I almost want to say that you don't have a player spawn but I think the error say something different.

Sounds like you didn't set up BSP correctly, but what is your Paintball 2 directory?

OMG. This is the same problem every time. If this happens again im gonna start a thread and I want it stickied. What happens is when you install a particular version of Paintball (cant remember) then folder /pball/maps/inprogress isn't made. Its just like some odd text document that doesn't do anything. Delete that and make it a folder. Now extract it.

Is there a common bsp errors thread?

Cameron · « **Reply #7 on:** April 21, 2008, 03:07:21 PM »

No, thats Common Global Login Problems. Unless I didn't use the "Search Function" well.

Yea, thats the one is was thinking of. I searched for the solution for this topic but didn't find anything about this specific error.

A quick search yielded: http://dplogin.com/forums/index.php?topic=12149.msg122007 in which ~~Cameron~~ M-A-Zing clearly gives the solution. We have like 10 stickies in the mapping section - is it really necessary to make one more? I don't think so.

. Search Function is my and should be everyones best friend.

Garrett · « **Reply #11 on:** April 21, 2008, 03:26:32 PM »

I knew there was another one of these topics and I even posted in it...
I never use Google for searching stuff on the boards. Guess I should make it a habit to.

Cameron · « **Reply #12 on:** April 21, 2008, 03:28:13 PM »

That was the topic that I found that problem in. Until that thread I had this problem.

Uhh, I recommend not using the forums slow search function, but rather just use Google...

Look how simple it is to find this thread: http://www.google.com/search?q=inurl%3Adplogin.com+%22inprogress%2Fmymap%22&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a

Never knew about the "inurl:" command. Learn something new everyday.

Cameron · « **Reply #16 on:** April 22, 2008, 12:12:47 AM »

How many of those commands does google have? I know define: and inurl:

mattz · « **Reply #17 on:** April 22, 2008, 09:17:06 AM »

right i'm going to uninstall BSP and REinstall it.

mattz · « **Reply #18 on:** April 22, 2008, 09:45:52 AM »

sorry for Double Posting but it still does the same error, the file for BSP is C:\BSP

What is the matter?

As they said, you need to create the "inprogress" directory in paintball2/pball/maps
