hi,

I can't compile my map.
i read somewhere that you can't have a brush bigger than 2000
but i'm sure much maps have the skybox bigger than 2000 units
can anyone explain?

Is this CoD1?

You can make a skybox out of an unlimited amount of brushes, as long as the brush is consistent and not broken.
So, you can place a brush and then place a second brush to its side, as long as the sides are touching and the brush is textured correctly.

Do you get any errors on the compile?

The skybox brushes can be as big as you want.

And you can have brushes bigger than 2000...it's just really not recommended.

If you use the normal modtools add in the compile.bat a "pause" in the very last line and then the window won't close until you press a key . Now you can rightclick and select and copy all

Delete any oddly shaped brushes or brushes which don't have their edges lined up with the grid, then try compiling again.
