I've used overlays before and they come out fine but for some reason on my current map, once ingame they're all black / in shadow.. once I put my flashlight on it the overlay can be seen. I haven't got a complete skybox around my map yet and I have no light entities of any sort installed either... What is problem? :o

Thanks

That's quite a big problem already. Don't expect things to work without light and with a map with leaks.
Even in successfully compile maps, overlays can act funny. Just use the "buildcubemaps" command in the console and switch between "mat_bumpmap 0" and "mat_bumpmap 1" a few times, as well as reloading the map. It will eventually be fixed.

Edit: by the way admins, when do I get a forum award :D haha jk
