The lightning_environment does not work, the entire map looks like it's on fullbright mode, is there any way to fix it? it seems that the fullbright issue happends only after the map is already compiled cuz in hammers ++ light preview it works. Is there a way to fix it?

compile log?

brittle anchor
#

check in the console that mat_fullbright isn't set to 1 , and that you compiled $light.exe with -hdr ,,

rugged saddle
#

ok thanks

#

I played around with the settings and light is back but the sky and props are gone

rugged saddle
#

and the map wouldn't compile without settings that couse it

brittle anchor
#

you should post the compile log , no sky and missing props is a good sign of a leak, if the props are skybox ones

rugged saddle
#

I already deleted all the skybox props for aptymalization but sure ill post it

rugged saddle
#

ok the entire thing compiled propperly but some props have messed up lightning

#

im gonna try out diffrent settings

#

but the map is fully playable tho

latent hamlet
#

Don't compile with fast. Also, make sure you have these vrad parms:

-StaticPropLighting -StaticPropPolys -TextureShadows

#

ok wait how do i set that in the settings?

#

im quiet new to hammer

#

ohhhhh so i need to open andvanced setting thanks

#

should I paste the stuff that u send me here?

latent hamlet
#

no, in $light_exe

#

the $light_exe step should be changed to this

-both -final -StaticPropLighting -StaticPropPolys -TextureShadows -game $gamedir $path\$file
#

(you can use -hdr instead of -both -final during test builds to speed up compiling, but proper distributables should have at least the above)

rugged saddle
#

Like that? sorry My english i limited and I didn't understand exacly what you want me to do

latent hamlet
#

almost; not quite. replace that entire box with that

rugged saddle
#

ok thank you su much for being so patient for me

#

ok im testing it out lets hope it works

#

THANK YUO SO MUCH

#
