Ai seem to be working fine. I’ll prepare to move on to the next map: hell_crypt.
Beta testing will start once this mappack is finished.

I am now starting on hell_crypt. It might take a while to finish this map. :o

Sorry for the triple post. Here’s some pics of hell_crypt with the light compiled. Will post more later. :stroggbanana:

On screens you used only light from torches or added separately?

(vicpas) #25

Seeing the pics above, I think you need to fit the shadows of the lights of torches.

(ronboy) #26

@ Eugeny: I used the entity ‘light’ for the torches.
@ Vicpas: How do I fit the shadows?

(Eugeny) #27

Therefore at you such effect, as at me in pyramids is gained not.

(ronboy) #28

Since the flame texture on the torch doesn’t put off any light, a light entity is needed.

(Eugeny) #29

I at myself on maps did not use entity light together with torches.
Fire texture gives light.

Well, I use the light entity because other mappers have used it as well. A map titled “The Chalice” by Tunnleram uses the light entities with torches.
I guess there are multiple methods of making torches.

Make how you consider it necessary.

To fit shadow’s texture.
Select the shadow’s texture, press “S” and when the “Surface inspetor” appears, press “Fit”

There is no shadow texture. The shadow is formed when I do a light compile, so there’s no way to fit the texture.

Ok. strange effect lightning.
In my maps this effect doesn’t occur and i add shadow’s texture.

In the .map file of escape1, I do see a shadow texture, but it has a missing shader image. I know the lighting looks funny in the above pics, but there’s nothing I can do about it.
Other than the lighting, I think hell_crypt is coming along nicely.

If you look the Wallpapers on Eugeny’s site.
You’ll see that his compilation doesn’t occur shadows.
Perhaps be your compilation’s parameters.

You must be right. I’ll post what the compile options are as soon as I can.

It by the way can be not shades, and smoking traces.

(ronboy) #39

You’re saying it’s not the shadows? Like I said, the shadow texture I saw in the .map file of escape1 is untextured.

(Eugeny) #40

I have assumed that it not a shade. This shadow texture is smoking traces with a texture - decals/burnm_01a.

And at me it in a radiant for some reason black color.
