did you export it to map file?
is the texture memory limit over it the compiler limit? (try making the limit higher)
if you use wadinclude you dont need the wadcfg argument (because the path will be read out of the .map fileformat then)

anyways if you are using Vulzcans oder SHLT you dont need to add the texturelimit anymore because the default value is high enough.

I do not know about the memory limit. However nothing works...

Why aren't your wads in /cstrike/ did your map .rmf and CS/WADs are on the same HDD? Just in case, anyway, WADS should be in /cstrike/

Run BatchCompiler as administrator in case access there is denied, check your config again, because the file read failure is most likely caused by that.

And set your texdata 8192 to 65536

dEMolite mapper04/06/2013 19:57

the wad path is irrelavant when they are included. they can be in cstrike or even in a folder somewhere on a hdd called /mapping/wads/

XaSer mapper Tournament #205/06/2013 17:59

It worked when I changed the texdata. Thank you both :D:D

dEMolite mapper05/06/2013 18:22

np XaSer, its just the most common problem all over the past years ^^ but still you can just leave the -texdata out because in an VLupdate the texture limit is high enough hardcoded. As you can see in the log:

max texture memory [ 8388608 ] [ 33554432 ]
8388608 is that one you had given out in batch compile
33554432 is the predefined hardcoded limit which has been overwritten with the -texdata argument of batch compile
