Dark floors problem
31/07/2016 09:11When I use func_wall for the ground I get this annoying shadow all around me is there a solution for this? https://s32.postimg.org/ju4linnl1/20160627200345_1.jpg
try to change ZHLT Lightflags for this entity
31/07/2016 11:27you cant use entity for bounding walls or ground.
31/07/2016 12:32maybe func_detail is better
31/07/2016 13:57why u want func_wall for the floor? :D

I have some things below the floor that are activated by a button which brings them up, if the floor is not func_wall they will have dark shadows like I showed in the picture in my first post, but if I use func_wall then the player gets the shadow so.. suggestions ?
31/07/2016 16:45because func_wall passes light maybe put a lighted room under the floor (low lights to affect the sky light)
31/07/2016 16:57I already tried to do it that way I didn't like the result im asking for a solution for the func_wall method
31/07/2016 17:40ask deathrun mappers like fuzzy1 i think they know those things :D
31/07/2016 22:43maybe you can build an invisible brush Func_illusionary above the ground and see if it helps
01/08/2016 19:46can i see the rmf? Maybe i can help you
01/08/2016 22:39easiest and fast solution should be func_illusionary and create an exact copy of the brush with a cliptexture.
vice versa it should be with proper light solution.
02/08/2016 00:51I think i have got to the bottom of it. And found 2 solutions to the problem but the best one is the one i'll explain. Because your light has -12 degrees angle, which means the "sun" is pretty low, light cannot pass through the walls with the gate. What causes the black bug is the fact that underneath the floor you have your "stuff" surrounded by sky texture, which allows light to pass, but actually can't in your case. I tried with null, same effect. I replaced everything that had sky texture from underneath the floor, with a random texture, so it blocks surrounding light, so the light can only come from above and "light" up the stuff that's under the floor. Dunno if it makes much sense, but here are pics to know what i'm talking about.
