Msg. 1 of 8
So I want to make night versions of the vanilla maps. But for the time being I want to do the Blood Gulch. I was just wondering how I would render them for a night time variant? I ran lightmaps only one time for a custom map and never again. I have forgotten how actually.

Change the skybox of the scenario in sapien to the a50 one or any other night sky, then do radiosity_quality 0 and radiosity_start in sapien. Then when its done do radiosity_save

Then when its done do radiosity_save Been a good long ass time since I messed with Sapien and all that. Let me go fool around with it. If I can't figure it out I'll get back to you. |

Actually use the light map command in tool and use quality 1 and threshold 0.001
This will make that you still have control over your computer, that the uvs won't suck, AND that the light map will be better quality. The command should be something like: tool lightmaps levels\test\bloodgulch\bloodgulch bloodgulch 1 0.001 Edited by The_Purrminator on Oct 31, 2015 at 04:42 AM |

It takes one 8 hours on a 12k map to run lightmaps with that threshold
