This is getting old!

Hi it's me again! Thank you all for all tips before. It has helped me to come a long way on my map. Now however ive run into trouble I can't seem to understand.

I have compiled and tested the map several times before and it's worked just fine. This time however i am getting a huge vision bug. The vision range seems to have shortened and where it ends i see the skybox instead. ( I have made the map inside of a big skybox.) Also the floor in my first room has dissapeared visually so i can see right throuh to the level under it while physically its still there.

Also I cannot take a screenshot of it. Because of some reason all screens i take in the map turn out pitch black..

There seems to be nothing wrong with the compile log but ill post it just in case.

Thx!

Max distance is at 200000

Also, is it bad to box the map?

Is there a skybox limit ?

btw hlvis -maxdistance and max visible distance from Map properties are not the same thing, try lowering the parameter or even removing it for that matter.
