Why no lights?

I never got around to learning how to add lighting because I don't view it as being that important.

They look like they could be really good, but I don't think anybody is going to play a fullbright map. It really ruins it

OK thank you for the insight, and putting a damper on the DLs

I think the fullbright screenshots are the thing putting a damper on the DLs

Just add lights! The could be really cool maps

Yeah lighting is pretty important in art like for painting and drawing.
I deleted most of my .rmf and .map files

so I'll just have to put a filter on my screen shots then upload them.

Well, they don't look so bad without lighting, lol.
They look like some Cube: Sauerbraten maps.

Edit: Wrong game. I meant the first Cube. Some (if not, most) of its maps seem like they have a lack of lighting even though they have lighting.

@789

You should turn other compilers on, otherwise you map will lag as hell and without CSG you probably won't get any geometry on your map. I don't know, never tried to do so.

Lighting(RAD) is the most important step which dictates how you're map is gonna look, i.e., a blocky & mono-textured map, yet crisp & contrasty lighting would look better than one with baller materials & brushwork, yet fullbright. In a nutshell:

DO NOT skip RAD!!!

Also recommend using Sledge and VHLT Compile Tools.

Thanks for the feedback, and links i'm going to try out sledge it looks way better than hammer or jackhammer.

Also I don't think anyone uses the original compilers anymore,
you need zhlt for the NULL texture.
