The issue persists with both normal and fast VIS/RAD, even with the -final parameter activated. In the image the lightmap looks blurry because I compiled the map with fast RAD.

in Uneven lighting in my map. Post #348498
Hi everyone,

I'm having this weird lighting bug where flat brush faces are being lit differently under the same light_environment. By playing around with Hammer++'s texture UV settings I've found out that faces are lit evenly if their UV coordinates are all kept the same. However, I'm not interested in having the same UVs for every face, as I want to have rotated textures. Additionally, if I set mat_bumpmap in Garry's Mod's console to 0, the issue is resolved, but then my map looks bleached. Here's a picture of the issue in case my explanation sucks:
