>I had the level loading for the past few days but then today at 1 pm PST it wouldn't load after I did some adjoining
of some surfaces that were HOMing. I selected each surface and adjoined it with the othersides that weren't
adjoined with it. For some reason I had to manually adjoin them instead of hitting the adjoin button. I was able to
adjoin some by hitting the adjoin button before doing the manual adjoins. I'm not sure if fixing the HOMing
surfaces is making it not load, but that's all I can figure out at this point.
The jkl name in the episode.jk file and the jkl file are in lowercase and spelled exactly as it should be spelled so it
should load, but its not.
I have a lot of planar errors and adjoin errors in the consistency checker, but I was able to load it for the past few
days with just the HOMing problem, why would I not be able to load it now after fixing the adjoining problems?
Try undoing the adjoins you made one at a time untill you discover which is giving you the problem to not load.
I assume you got adjoin not overlapping problem or something along that line.
If you have an adjoin, lets say it has 4 Vx on each surface , if you cleave a new surface and one end of it ends up on an adjoined surface this is when you get the non overlapping adjoin error. What you have done is one of the adjoined surfaces now has 5 vx and the other side of it has only 4. Idealy you could insert another vx into the other surface and redo the adjoin, Unfortunetly you can `t insert a vx yet. So you also need to cleave the surface with only 4 vx.
In other words both sides of the adjoin must be the same number of vx (vertexs).
