Huge black void.

[Powback]

Hello!

I'm wondering whether someone can enlarge [URL="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/58144757/tf_whitebox_blacklightmap.bsp"]this[/URL] map?

I tried myself, but I'm crashing during the compiling.

Thanks.

How large do you want it to be?

[NicoleEmilid]

Did you make it?

And, can you post screenshots?

No need, it's just a 2048³ box with an infinite black light in the center. I have a hunch that the compiling problems were due to the light's max distance being set to 99999999999999. The same effect can be achieved by setting the light's CLQ attenuation to 1:0:0.

I didn't enlarge it, but I fixed it by getting rid of the max distance and instead making it infinite through constant falloff. It compiled fine for me on CSS, but I don't have time to test it.
If you don't encounter any other issues, enlarge it yourself with the CTRL+M dialog (set the mode to "Scale" and the values on all three axes to 2 for a 4096³ box, 3 for a 8192³ box, etc.).

Thank you! I'll compile it when I come home. You're to great help!

[Mozartkugeln]

My pleasure.

I tested the version I compiled in CSS, and, sure enough, it's pitch black.

Well, fuck my ass and call me David. It works!

HDR on the other hand though.. Did you get HDR working?

Edit:

Vrad is crashing when compiling for TF2.

[Mozartkugeln]

I didn't even try. What's wrong with it, though?

Post a compile log.

This is after scaling with 2, but there's no problem compiling with CSS. Getting missing textures there though.

[Mozartkugeln]

Could you post the [I]whole[/I] log just in case? Also, if it compiles fine on CSS, you should be able to run the map on TF2 (the textures won't be missing there).

Huh, I don't know what happened, but it works now. I believe the scale was too high.

Thank you so much for your help! It's making my work a lot easier! Thank you!

Wait, no. I need a larger map. And this is the log:

[QUOTE=Freakrules;40291545]The mapname "tf_whitebox_blacklightmap (1)" might have crashed the compiler...[/QUOTE]

Really? I did manage to compile it after deleting some previous versions. But I don't know if this is the case with the larger map, since at one was plain tf_whitebox_blacklightmap.

You wouldn't mind compiling it with a huge scale? I need a shitton of space.

[Powback]

In case anyone was wondering why I crashed, I had a lightmapscale too low for such a high environment. Changing it to 99 made it compile successfully. I'm not using the walls anyway.

[Itauske]

we can has download soon? It'd be great for scenebuilds

-snip, stupid remark-

[QUOTE=Itauske Roken;40318540]we can has download soon? It'd be great for scenebuilds[/QUOTE]

I'll fix up the textures so you actually can see where the walls are. it's maximum size and such. I can upload it when I come home.
