1 - make objects that's shadows are lightbugged func_wall
2 - use light_environment
3 - models are thru-walkable already, to make them solid, use clip brush
4 - it's hard to remove them, better watch some tutorials how to avoid them.
5 - didn't understand.
6 - make a .bmp file in photoshop or paint with some text on it (i recommend balck background), import to wally and convert to .wad. After that make a new brush with that texture and tie it into entity func_illusionary with render mode additive.

can you explain first and second more detailed ?

ok i make light_enviroment but it is set full bright. thats all with light_environment

Lightbug is caused by some object's shadow, so it's bugged. Just try to tie objects around lightbug to func_wall.
Second, well, you can chose brigthness etc, google it better. Also the full-brightness can be caused by the leak or some other error (check your compile log and look for errors + post them).

ok i solved everything i needed just one more thing. how i make my textures transparent ?

remake03/06/2009 15:27

To get black colors transparent, use "Additive" as a render mode. To get blue colors transparent, use "Solid" as a render mode.

ok one last thing...which function is to make things, when you walk on them, which makes damage. And how to choose what hp loss you get every sec ?

can you make it with water? you swim in water and get hp loss.(not when you dont have enought O)

remake04/06/2009 01:37

use aaatrigger texture and make a brush with it, tie it into entity trigger_hurt and you can choose a damage type and amount. If you set a damage to negative (-), then if you fall, you'll get your hp back. Btw aaatrigger brush will be inisible, so just add it into a water if you want.
