question on leak Created 18 years ago2006-05-17 08:45:38 UTC by inuendocrash

so, leaks cause a floodlight map? for somereason that doesnt happen forr me, i clearly had a leak, said so in the compile, and im just wondering why it wasnt fullbright, not that i want it, im just curious.

If you don't run RAD and have a leak, your map will be black.

Post your compile log.

The leaks are found in the BSP prosses, Muzzle. When BSP builds Hull0,1,2,3.

You are using Quake's compile tools(the ones that come with hammer) they don't make the map full bright if it has a leak. This makes it much harder to find the leak and don't think you can just leave a leak alone, it will raise the maps R_speeds(wpolies) and the fps rate will be lowered.

Use Zoner Half-life compiling tools(ZHLT) to compile your maps instead. Found in the links page on this site.

no, i deleted a wall to check actually see what a void looks like, and it wasnt fullbright so i was wondering

Was it all dark? Just no lighting at all?

no, normal lighting. i Used all textured lighting if that changes anything

Get ZHLT like I told you.

Then your're no having a real leak. Post your compile log for details.

Q-tools don't make the map fullbright if you have a leak, muzzle. He just said he opened the hull to the void in purpose to see how the void looks like.

You must have older tools.. Update.

This is wat you need:

lol the void is nothing.. thats all there is to it. thats why its the void. it just gives you the hall of mirrors effect. unless you type in 'gl_clear 1' then it'll be a solid color
