That tutorial is wrong. You can't compress a map after a recursive injection and expect it to work... You'll need to do a rebuild.

Please tell me that's a joke. If not, then you are severly mistaken. I've done that to multiplayer as well as single player maps and it's worked.

I wasn't joking.
HHT fubars the loneids on some tags during the recursive injection process -- this may (or may not) screw up the compression process. Either way, I've never gotten any model in a map to load without freezing the game when compressed after a recursive injection.

Keeywi, if the rebuild doesn't fix your problem, you may want to check the loneids with xinject.

Odd. Usually when I attempt a rebuild it errors and then I have to start over. lol kinda interesting one method works for me and the other works for you. Whatever works.
