I'm making a map but when I go to test it on Garry's Mod when I use the flashlight the render distance of the maps shrinks to around 450 hammer squares.
When I have the flashlight off, the map's render distance is normal and like it is on any other map.
I've gotten a friend to test the map and he had the same problem.
Would be grateful of any help.

The only error I see that's important at all is that there's no lights.rad, which you should probably fix.
Don't bother to bump after not even a day...someone will reply to you.
The only thing i can see is:
zero area child patch
zero area child patch
zero area child patch
Usually caused by poor vertex editing, this error can cause oddities. Shouldn't affect your flashlight though.
Do you have any in game screenshots? This sounds like a graphical bug rather than a hammer error.

[QUOTE=Firegod522;36665421]Are your video drivers up to date?[/QUOTE]
Yeah, they're all updated. And I also got a friend on Steam to give the map a test and he got the same error.

I removed all my displacements because they weren't the best XD But I'm still getting the same problem.

I've included the lights.rad, still doesn't work :(
