K some i'm compiling a map and Tool decides to do this (download the attachment it's way to big to post lol)

Ruling out the open edges, and it not being able to find a shader, degenerate triangles, triangles thrown outside BSP, and the non convex surfaces... because i've had those errors before and the map would compile just fine).

There's a error at the bottom that says my disk is full (uh yea right 1TB, and that i'm out of memory 1.5GB being used out of 3GB)... Not to sure what to do about this other than trying to get rid of the errors but that will take a long ass time since the .wrl file is being slightly retarded.

No attachments eh... Fine i'll upload the bastard:

Anyone got any ideas about this?

===============================

UPDATE 1: I'm down to 3 open edges (1 degenerate triangle), 32 non convex surfaces, and 14 triangles thrown outside of the BSP. I still get the same out of memory error. I should have all the errors done with an a while.

UPDATE 2: I compiled the map without a lightmap and that succeeded so this has to be a problem with the lightmapper. Ofcourse since this is the first build Sapien can't load it without a lightmap so I just used the lightmap from Example and the map loaded into Sapien just fine (even with the errors).

So it's the lightmap... WTF!

Out of memory is not related to your HDD. It means it runs out of memory, as in RAM. You need more RAM, so turn off processes that take up memory or buy more of it.

I think you missed the part where I said i'm using 1.5GB out 3GB of memory (RAM).

I know the difference between HDD's and RAM lol.

Edit: Ok just to elaborate a little bit more, Tool peaks at 277.8 MB during the time when it tries to process the lightmaps, oddly enough Tools says it's using 0 MB up until it starts trying to rasterize. Then it's apparently using 222 MB (Task Manager tells me other wise). It then locks up after rasterizing and then closes itself. Keeping in mind that my system is using 64% of my RAM at this point.

Oh sorry, I sorta just glanced through it. I'm not sure, but just try to reduce the number of apps running and right-click tool in the processes selection and set its priority to high or realtime. That should at least help a little.

Nope non of that worked. I wondering if it's because I don't have any lighting in my level (it's pretty big and has an outdoor/indoor thing happening).
