First you need to make sure that you don't have any messed up brushes in your map, secondly you need to run it with sv_pure 0.
If there is still no luck with that, make sure you are using the right compile option, then pack the .bsp to a .pk3 and manually start it that way to see if it resolves the issue.

First, i compile my map by this option:

Then i pack .bsp file into pk3:

Finally, i run my map by typing in console "\map oa_small_dm" and i got !@#$%^ error:

I was doing maps for Warsow (www.warsow.net) by this method and they were playable.

I am no expert in the field but it seems like a memory leak somewhere.
Have you tried increasing com_hunkmegs?
Have you tried if you get the same error in a final compile or even a single bsp compile without .aas?

I increased com_hunkmegs fron 64 to 256 and it still doesn't work.
I'll try to build another map.

Requested feature was omitted at compile time

1. After compiling & pak'ing, I'll go to select the map ingame, but get booted to desktop with a console error:

"----- Server Shutdown -----
==== ShutdownGame ====
AAS shutdown.
---------------------------
Requested feature was omitted at compile time"

I'm not sure what request they mean, as i did a full vis & light extra.

2. Also, the q3map.exe always has to close during the -vis due to an error. Then it goes on with the -light. This happened with a previous map I made, and I had no problems with it from its pk3.

3. Whats the significance of the .prt file to the .bsp? Does this need to be done before vis/light? (Is it included?) As i've noticed, it's not there after doing the vis/light.

I'm using gtkRadiant 1.1 with xp. [psion]

A : 1. This problem occurs if you're using a jpg saved with progressive encoding as your levelshot. Use standard encoding instead. [Anwulf]

2. Found the nightly build (of gtk) is doing the trick. Wasn't aware it was a vis crash bug. [psion]

3. The .prt file contains the portal information which you'd use in conjunction with the portal viewer plugin. Unless you add a compile option to your projects file with the -saveprt switch, the .prt file is automatically deleted. [Anwulf]

I had this problem in Tremulous once. The reason was that some of my JPEG textures were encoded using progressive encoding. Try using baseline JPEGs.

Wouldn't recommend using .bmp they have no compression and take up a lot of space.
