Im stuck in the room with the ball launcher next to an orange portal and a button plus catcher on the other side of the water. Theres a box dropper but it didnt drop a box for me

On another note I think the problem with saving and loading might be to do with a logic_relay or logic_auto triggering something it shouldn't via an OnLoad output. Just a guess tho so I'm probably wrong

Theres no on map spawn events, its all done with triggers. The dropper wont work if you noclip past the beginning, with the first dropper, or past the trigger.

On further inspection the console came up with this during a load attempt:

Loading game from SAVEquick.sav...
CModelLoader::Map_IsValid: No such map 'maps/contest0209_sbrown_SuperChamber.bsp'
Map 'contest0209_sbrown_SuperChamber' missing or invalid
Save file SAVEquick.sav is not valid

Found the problem. 'contest0209_sbrown_SuperChamber' is simply too long for the game to understand. Renaming the folder to SuperChamber will solve this issue

Edit: Fixed, redownload the file.

A mod should totally remove all these pointless posts now, because theres no issue now

Your map was great sbrown. It's as if you actually made the template. Oh wait... you did.

Maybe you did, but I started Mine before Febuary, there's no rule that says you can't.
