Really frustrating problem!!!!! Created 20 years ago2004-04-15 11:56:09 UTC by Dark Phoenix

Heres the scenario:
1. map 1 - Run around then when your ready to move on click the button. Button causes level change to map 2.
2. map 2 - Pitch black room, where text comes up giving some story. change_level activated, on to map 3.
3. map 3 - inside a helicopter with your buddies, you cant move. Buddies do some talking, then helicopter gets attacked (hope doesnt sound too familiar!), fade out.... change level.... I dont need to go on its map 3 that has the problem.

My models of my buddies in the chopter after the level change arent affected by light ie. they are bright white. But there isnt a leak because when i run just map 3 the buddies are affected by light. So what could be happening in the level change to make it do this? Would it be better to put map 2 and 3 together and instead of a level change have a teleport? I dont like using teleports because ive actually never used them and they sound kinda complicated?

Thanks

Im not at all sure, but make sure the models are not touching the walls of the copter.

they are but everything theyre touching is func_illusionary, so it all works. I just think its weird how when you run it of the compile it works perfectly, then you play all my levels together and it goes all queer.

I might try the teleport idea, i dunno where to start!

Make sure the ZHLT light flag is set to opaque, otherwise they don't block light.
