[HELP] Half Life SDK Fullbright Problem/Point File problem Created 4 years ago2020-09-02 03:03:18 UTC by MuslimMagic

Hello, I figured this would be the best place to ask for help but my maps are constantly in Fullbright. I've changed lighting entities, tried to load the point file, checked for problems and recompiled, made new maps, uninstalled and reinstalled and still nothing has work. Similarly, the pts files for my maps are not appearing. I've had one appear in my directory and it is now gone and none others appear. I am fairly new to the hammer editor so any help is appreciated in trying to solve this problem.

My most recent compile below:

Where is Radiosity? You cant have lights with out the final step.
First is CSG then BSP then VIS and then RAD. I do not see RAD step completed in your compile log.

After looking back through the build programs, the problem was I had the wrong shader selected for Rad

So it was not a mistake you really were missing the radiosity step.
Which compiler are you using? Built in Hammer or Jackhammer one , or is it something third party?
