lights in my map

[jitspoe]

The light is set to 40 in the worldspawn?  You referring to the _sun_light?  If so, you probably need to make it higher than that.  Also make sure your sky brushes have light checked and a value of 300 or so.  You should probably make a really simple test map to figure out how to do lighting so you don't have to wait for your larger map to compile.

I had the same problem a while back.  This topic helped me out so why not give it a try too.

well, i found out why there is a stutter in the map, the r_speeds are through the roof, which is prob due to the fact I haven't put anything in the center except the pool. I know you (Jitspoe) said not to use the fastvis rad for the compile, but it works. I have 3 other maps done & no problems. The R_speeds are high as 1200 on one map & under 1000 for the other 2 maps.
    As for the light.....in the world spawn entity i placed a "tab" that key light, value 40, it give me light that I find acceptable for the game since all the buildings in my map have lights in them that work properly.

It works, just not as well.

ok, so i should take away the light value to the worldspawn, give the sky a light value and do a final compile?? from previous tests this didnt produce any lights or shadow......
