Hammer Error: Hunk Overflow Thread

Error Hunk Overflow.

Been getting this ever since our mod went orange box. After a decent amount of googling we find that it has to do with large maps. Also we find that no one knows what the @#^@ to do about it.

Anyone here come along the problem and if so how to fix it?

first up that error sounds incredibly sexy. What type of compile settings are you using?

You'll need to make sure you don't have any displacements over 1024x1024 and then increase your lightmap scale in some areas.

Do you mean that on a per-brush scale? No individual brushes over 1024x1024? I always displace in segmennts, and just go from there, but that would be a nice thing to know for future reference.
