Problems with rendering distance Created 13 years ago2011-03-17 19:59:16 UTC by Badd

Hi TWHL Crew, having a problem with rendering distance in a map i am making. The walls disappear at very short distance. When looking across the map the view will gradually change to the skybox texture. How do i render the visual distance longer to see all of the map and not have it be replaced with the skybox.

Thanks you guys are great

Go to the "Map" tab in Hammer, "Map Properties" then go to the view distance property and double it.

Hope that helps.

Go to the "Map" tab in Hammer, "Map Properties" then go to the view distance property and double it.

This only has effect on the map ingame, for it to have effect in the editor, go to menu Tools, Options, 3D View tab and move the Back clipping plane slide to the right. This affects only world geometry, not models. If you want to increase the view distance for models, move the Model render distance slider to the right.

Yes but he was talking about seeing sky, so his problem is not in Hammer. Of course, that'll help too.

15000? O_O

I remember having errors with render distance over 6000... Compiler didnt want to compile.

_< I use zoners, silencers, and some other 3rd party compiler.. my maxes are all kinds at ends of the spectrum. Though, those are the defaults you can set that varient at.. look it up at uhm.. tommy's hl fixes, or whatever that place is called.

Also, get compilator, it's much better about smashing errors into maps and making a working .bsp out of them.
