Radiosity is when you make the level appear if you compile it with Blizergreg or what ever, the old JMS exporter before the Bluestreak project came around.

Avatar Quote thing: Lol, I did not mean to point it at you, just an Xfire status I saw Higuy using.

Fail, radiosity is to create lightmaps which is a necessity to make the map appear in sapien. No light = pitch black map = unseen map

oh, forgot to mention that i am using Gmax, so i use chimp 1.6 and now see no point in making the radiosity, unless it will make shadows and such, idk. whatever i got it working, so i have one more question. is it possible to make animations in Gmax?

No, you don't get it. YOU HAVE TO RUN RADIOSITY for maps to work. Goldkilla failed his post so yeah.
