Mapping Help
This is the place to ask about mapping problems, techniques, and bug fixing, and pretty much anything else you want to do in the level editor.

#20849 
Something is probably wrong in your setup, like directories or perhaps the paths have spaces in them (they shouldn't). Maybe something changed?

For some reason the QBSP log looks cut off and then immediately VIS log starts. Either way the BSP file either can't be created (maybe some user rights issue like you can't write to that folder or whatever) or is not created due to some other error. 
 
Yeah you'd probably need to show us how your compile GUI is set up, paths/arguments/whatever. 
Try Running The Tools Using A Command Prompt. 
Put your tools (qbsp.exe, vis.exe and light.exe) in a directory such as c:\compile\, along with your map file.

Then click start, type CMD, press enter.

You should see a command prompt.

Type cd c:\compile

Then type qbsp gamermap

Then, assuming it finishes, type light gamermap

If that runs, type vis gamermap

then you can copy your map file to quake\id1\maps or wherever your maps directory is.

Then you can run Quake, press the tilde key (`), and type map gamermap.

The old fashioned way. You will probably find out what the problem is along the way. If not, post your experience here :) 
Quake Rerelease Crashes 
My map crashes the Quake Rerelease with this weird error:

kexTaggedMemory::Malloc: failed on allocation of 18446744073709453648 bytes (c:\jenkins-agen\workspace\_ii_silver_athena_quake_i_master\kex3_bastet\source\renderer\r_model.cpp:1145)

It's vis'd properly with no warnings or errors and works in quakespasm and qss. 
Solved It.. 
Selected everything and moved the map so it's at the center of the grid and now it runs fine. 
Cant Select Touching 
whenever i use Ctrl-T or click "select touching" in the menu, instead of selecting touching, it deletes the object i originally pressed. What am i doing wrong? 
Lingua_Ignota 
Are you using Radiant? If so, that is expected behavior. The four options -- "select partial tall," "select complete tall," "select touching," and "select inside" -- all assume that you will first draw out a temporary brush that you intend to use only to select "real" brushes. The temp brush then gets deleted as part of the operation. 
^ Yes. 
In Worldcraft and other editors, you can drag a selection box to select brushes and entities. But in Trenchbroom there is no selection tool. So you make a temporary brush then Ctrl+T.
