Bug: Hammer Unable to Compile Maps If Base Portal 2 is on a Different Drive

Open HDMineFace opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

Describe the bug

Attempting to compile any map does not open the compile process window. Nothing else really happens, this issue occurs in both simple and advanced mode and was tested on a fresh install. Moving Portal 2 and P2CE to the same drive fixes this issue.

This occurs on any VMF i've tried to open, including maps that compile fine on base portal 2, maps that friends can compile, and simple box maps. Included are screenshots from hammer's messages (Window>Messages) image image image

Can anyone reproduce this? @AWildErin says their setup is similar and works

Yeah, I compile and work off of my dev build for p2ce which is on E, my Portal 2 is on G and I can compile maps perfectly fine

Closing, as I can't reproduce this and haven't heard of anyone else with this issue
