Hey guys everytime i compiled a map i get the same error, it only happens when run VIS is set on, if its set to off it builds fine. The error is Couldnt Read H:\Games\Steamapps\Common blah blah blah\maps Testmap.prt

How do i fix this?

Your map has a leak. Check your point file and fix your leaks.

VDC article on leaks. Read it.

Do you have a player start entity? You need to have one, otherwise VBSP doesn't know where the "inside" of your map is.

Of course it did. No portal file means you have a leak 100% of the time.
