Entities not showing in game

[Mr.@Bele]

Hey, I'm pretty new to the map making scheme. So bare with me, I have two problems here. I'm using Hammer to make a CS:S map.

1. I put in entities and it shows up in the display window, but when i run the map, only a couple of them show up.

2. I'm trying to make a sky, so I create a block and apply the skybox texture to it, yet it doesnt do anything.

I'm sry these are probably really noob question

 

[Unarmed]

Explain more please. GIve us a compile log also.

What entities do not show up? What did you want the sky to do? Is it just a block with all sides textured with toolsskybox?

 

[Kester^]

Like Unarmed said, post a compile log, that should help us on the entity issue.

As for the Sky, I can only think you haven't textured the entire brush in the skybox texture.

 

[-Psy-]

I think you haven't hollowed the cube out...

You apply the tools/skybox texture on the concave (right?) faces.

theres the Log. as for the sky I've tried hollowing out a cube that is textured with the tool/skybox

 

[Unarmed]

Your map leaks. That needs to be fixed.

As far as the sky goes it seems that you have picked an invalid skybox name.

material "skybox/cs_havanart" not found
Can't load skybox file skybox/cs_havana to build the default cubemap!
No such variable "$hdrbasetexture" for material "___error"
Can't load skybox file skybox/cs_havana to build the default cubemap!

Go to the texture browser and enter "sky" into the search field. There should be a ton to choose from and it seems cs_havana is not one of them. Maybe the name is somewhat different, what do I know.
