                       QRAD3.EXE Problems & Solutions

                                      QRAD takes a very long time on
                                      large areas and on large maps. Be
                                      prepared to wait. I have tried
                                      compiling a 3000+ unit deep pit
   While running QRAD3 on a fairly    with only a few brushes present
   large level, with a large, lighted altogether, and it took so long
   open area, the progress numbers on that I gave up. A 16 processor SGI
   QRAD3 got to the '9' on the 2nd rowmanaged it but it took about 2
   and gave 'ERROR: Memory allocation hours (I think.) The 10 arena
   failure'. I tried this twice (once Rocket Arena 2 map reportedly took
   with other programs running, and   about 12 hours to compile on the
   twice with bare bones windows) and same SGI machine, so don't be too
   got the same result. I'm using the surprised if a large map takes a
   latest version of Qoole (non-3dfx) seemingly inordinate length of time
   and have an Intel 166MMX and 48    to compile fully. One major bit of
   megs of EDO RAM.                   advice would be to use lots of
                                      detail brushes - they should not
                                      provide a mind blowing speed hit
                                      during gameplay, but I have heard
                                      otherwise.

   Out of memory error on a PII-233
   and 64 MB RAM. Windows page file
   size was changed to a fixed value
   of 100 MB. When I let Win95 control
   the size of the virtual memory
   pagefile, the problem disappears,  See above.
   but the computer starts paging like
   hell in the final stage of QRAD3.
   The map is also quite large with
   open areas.
   Whenever I add some light to my
   map, qvis sends me this error and
   the                                You have a map leak. This is
   lights aren't there.               explained somewhere in here.
                                      Replace all references to the 'grey
   Error: Can't find [mapname].prt    void' with 'orange void'.
