my vpk is being saved here "Users\Me\Local\Temp\valve\hammermapbuild\game\csgo_addons\de_sancha\maps\de_sancha.vpk" this causes the compiler to error out and the map doesnt launch, but it finishes building. anyone know how to make the vpk save properly

I have no idea what you mean

#

My bad I did mean vpk lol

#

so there is a known issue where after compiling, the vpk fails to copy to the game folder

#

though I still haven't seen a definite reason for why it happens or how to fix it, you can do a manual workaround

#

where you copy that vpk to your game folder

#

i.e. you would copy that vpk to game/csgo_addons/de_sancha/maps

I have been doing that

#

yeah

zenith yacht Jul 18, 2024, 7:30 PM

#

but theres no way to fix it from saving elsewhere?

#

the vpk always gets puts there

#

that's where it "builds" the vpk

#

the compiler is just supposed to do a step where it automatically copies it to your game folder

oh

#

interesting

#

I know someone that fixed it by realizing they had a system misconfiguration and their PC was actually using integrated graphics instead of their graphics card

#

But I have no idea why that fixed it or if its the only possible cause of the issue

#

might be that

#

I have amd and every program is basically made for nvidia so stuff like this happens a lot

#

this has happened to me before but it fixed itself, I think it happens when my gpu updates

average AMD experience

No, it just a win11 bug, should use win10 or win11 upgrade from win10 and no online account setup

wise eagle Jul 19, 2024, 2:47 AM

#

It's not a win11 specific bug (at least not caused specifically by having win11)

#

I know many people who have windows 11 (including myself) who do not have this issue

#

I haven't got this before and in one day I got this and tried a lot fresh windows installed and what i got is, no more online account in windows setting

#

I don't know what break the things but maybe the online account change the path of AppData

#

And the path break permanently once online account setup,log out do nothing

It's also possible there are multiple causes, but as of right now I don't know of anything that has been 100% completely reproduced
