Having Problems Getting Started

Hi all. Just started mapping the other night. Getting used to adding all the entities and such. Today I made a readyroom that I was proud of, ran it and everything went ok. Then when I copied half of the room and pasted/rotated it to make the room symetrical, when I run the map it wont load. HL either gives me the "must be shut down" error or it just kicks me back to the first screen. It even does this when I start the server with a different map and change it with the console. I hope I didnt mess anything up, but its getting quite frustrating. Does anyone have any input on this?

Thanks in advance, I appreciate it. <!--emo&::nerdy::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/nerd.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='nerd.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    This does not belong in the mapping forum... it should be in the MAPPING HELP subFORUM!

    Anyways, can you post your compile log? We can't track the error down what's causing it like this...

    Forgive me I did not see your PRECIOUS SUBFORUM! anyway, it was a leak that I had. Told me that some lights were leaking, but that was it. long story short I give up, its just too tedious for me. You guys make them and I'll play in them. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Don't give up from one leak! just put everything in a big box to compile fine (albeit slowly). It is tough to learn hammer and the compiler at first but once you start to get it it can be a lotta fun <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    btw fix the leak so you don't use the big box for the final version
