OW! MY EYES!!! TOO BRIGHT! Created 20 years ago2004-09-23 13:31:21 UTC by Archie

Ok, my fourth map is near completion and its the only one i actually like... so anyway, im really happy and everything when suddenly i test it... Everything was super bright and textures that were lighter than light green appeared almost white... blue appeared blueywhite black appeared grey orange - yellow and so on so forth... its just too bright... and then when i get into a room with white walls.. ARGH!!!!!... anyone help please?

OK well first off, do you have a leak?(does every texture appear bright or just the light textures)
and second>
Are you useing a Lights.rad file?

Post compile log.

Make sure you are running RAD.

nope.. no leak.. not using lights.rad...
this does show up when i compile but its still runs fine...

Go and check for problems---There should be something like
perpendicula face or something like that click these and press fix....

(I think Check For Problems Is in the edit tab???)

nvrmnd... it was stupider than all that.. lol... god im good at missing the obvious things... lol. i had set my env light way to bright.. sorry.. lol... i wondered why i only noticed it on this map... oops.

hahahahaha, don't worry about it, we've had alot of them...lol

That looks suspiciously like the Qtools. Get ZHLT, unless I'm mistaken.

Ya I think it is... I never even picked up on that--- nice call seventh.

It's both. More common in Q-Tools though.

Hy all, ufzero here!
My question is that how can I have my map lit with a certain light level everywhere? I mean I don't want shadows, and stuff like that, just want the map to be bright everywhere without lights. Is that possible? Pleeeeez help!

yeah, dont run rad or put in a leak

And the other thing:
Why can't I run my maps from the original hl? I have hammer v3.4. From where do hl open multimaps? It is hlvalvemaps folder, isn't it?

umm... i think this is what you want:
type "map mapname" in the hl console (without the "'s and mapname = the name of the map you want to run)

whats a multimap?

and if you're not using steam, i believe you can find the map names in your pak folder.

i'm really not sure though if that is what you wanted to know...

I'm hungarian, you know...
Multimap means a map, which can be used in multiplayer...
I wanted to know if it is possible to have my map lit without any lights...

Do not put a leak in your map to make it fullbright.

I tried to run my map without RAD but when hammer finishes compiling and it's just about to run it, HL quits... :

Thx pals, I have fixed all of my problems!
