Can someone tell me what these errors mean?
I get them when compiling levels.

Face with no normal!
Entity 0, Brush 0: Bounds out of range
MakeBSPBrushes: Bad brush.
SplitBrush: Brush was not split.

Here is the RF log.

The levels run fine when I test them from the editor.
When I try to get them to run just through RF I get the following:

This means that a brush(namely brush 0->the first you have added, i think) is too big. This occours i when the level is 20.000+ units wide i think....

This is no error, the editor only says that it doesn't render the texture of a world model or an actor.
->hasn't any influence on the *.bsp file.

How can I tell how wide it is exactly?

Why does the leven test fine but crash when run just through the game engine?

Hmm...ok...i hope this helps:

When an brush/entity bounds out of range the editor normally can't create the *.bsp file. But IF it compiled but the brush is 'out of range', there you have your problem.
If it did NOT compile but you tried to run the level trough the Realityfactory.exe, then i think you try to run a 0-byte-*.bsp, which doesn't work...

The bsp that I am trying to run through the engine is 816 KB. I also have levels that are wider and longer and they run just fine. So im really stumped.

You might have a brush that's way way outside your level, sometimes you can fling them away without knowing. Open up
the .3dt file in a text editor and look for a brush x y z location in the high thousands, if you find it set the location to 0 0 0.

Levels like this
will compile but not run. Entities outside your level will always
generate a leak.

Thanks for the really useful info. I got the game to run throught the game engine by deleting the walls around the bottom floor of the main building and then simply creating one just like in exactly the same place. The building is identical to what it was when I had the issue but now I dont have the issue anymore.

Divine Providence?

Nah, probably compiler decimal rounding error.
