So I am working on a map..and its fairly big.... 7020x7040 (theres a shitload of stuff in it....) and I went to compile and it gave me the error..
"The Command Failed" Windows reported this error:
"The system cannot find the file specified"

any idea on how I can fix this? Been working on this map for about 17 hrs, I'd rather not start over.

heres everything in the compiling window before it stopped...
