- AllocBlock is the allocation of lightmaps (64 in first-party titles, 512 in
). - AllocBlock errors are purely related to lightmap atlas generation. Lightmaps are always 16 luxels per texel, so the easiest way to use up AllocBlock is to have a lot of brushes with dense texture scales.
- AllocBlock is why
GoldSrc mappers use 1.0 texture scale by default.
Description
While compiling or attempting to play it, your map has exceeded the maximum lightmap size.
Solution
Reduce resolution and scale of used textures. Consider using Detail textures to increase the perceived quality of WAD textures, instead of using high-res WAD textures.
Important:Users whose GPUs have blocked the GL_ARB_multitexture extension (such as for 
enabling overbright lighting) will not see detail textures.
