maybe it's because I used old bee mod

[ZipZoptheCat]

I had a similar issue from trying to use 2.2 and 2.4 alternating. I ended up having to do a clean install of portal and beemod.

[LautaroL20]

Make sure your antivirus is not blocking the compiler´s files of Beemod that are located in the "bin" folder inside the Portal 2 game´s directory (i'd suggest to add the whole folder in the exception´s list) because this is also the cause of certain ammount of "building error" issues...

Once you solved any possible conflicts between your antivirus and the game files, then make sure to follow the steps from below:

1 - Open Beemod and click on: File ----> Uninstall From Selected Game ----> "Are you sure you want to delete "PORTAL 2"? ----> YES.

2 - Wait 1 minute while Beemod removes their resources from Portal 2.

3 - Verify the Game Cache Files.

4 - Make sure to have downloaded and unzipped the latest Item's Packages and Application version of BEE2.4, and both must be from the same Pre-Release Version, otherwise bugs may occur. Links:

https://github.com/BEEmod/BEE2.4/releases (Application) https://github.com/BEEmod/BEE2-items/releases (Item's Packages)

Note that if you are running Beemod on Linux or Mac Os X, or even on 32 Bit versions of Windows, issues can occur. Beemod currently works well only on 64 Bit versions of Windows 7, 8 and 10.

5 - Click on: File ----> Options ----> Development, then uncheck the option: Preserve Game Directories.

6 - Now choose your favorite Items & Style and export your palette to the game.

7 - Make sure to save these steps in a text file in case you get similar issues in the future.

8 - Happy mapmaking!

@LautaroL20 I have already tried to follow these steps

[LautaroL20]

That is weird...

[SCIENTIST2004]

@ZipZoptheCat how you did it.

[ZipZoptheCat]

I just erased all three programs and reinstalled them from a new download. Haven't tried using 2.2 again. I think that was the problem originally.

[SCIENTIST2004]

you mean old bee mod, new bee mod and potal 2?

[SCIENTIST2004]

does anybody know where folder with my own test chambers is?

[SCIENTIST2004]

[HugoBDesigner]

Yes, step 3 of what Lautaro told you to do: 3 - Verify the Game Cache Files.

[SCIENTIST2004]

Ooops...

[ZipZoptheCat]

I did not attempt to use 2.2 again after it didn't work.

[SCIENTIST2004]

THIS DOES NOT WORK

[SCIENTIST2004]

re open please

[SCIENTIST2004]

does anybody know where folder with my own test chambers is?

[ZipZoptheCat]

try deleting the actual folders the programs are in before installing.

[SCIENTIST2004]

I have already tried but it doesnt work
