Per-stage lightmap allocation and BSP write-out disabling?


(WolfWings) #1

What the subject said, a map I’m compiling lately takes around 6-7 bounces before it finishes compiling, and while I’m tweaking the lighting I’ve been noticing that over half the lighting-stage time is spent at:
Subsampling…collapsing…sorting…allocating…

Any way to disable per-bounce .BSP writing? I’m guessing the above is related to said per-bounce write-out, if it’s not, forgive the question. And if this is in one of the numerous manual scraps littered around, my appologies for not being able to dig it up. :smiley:

What version of Q3Map2 are you using?

2.5.15 or above, I don’t know if it’s one of your ‘beta’ releases or the version from the 2.5.15 sticky-topic at the top of the forum.
