Ideally, you want to avoid adjust lightmaps scale down below 16. But if it's extremely important as to fix some lightning issue in some area of your level, then yes. Otherwise, area that are too bland or too far away can have a lightscale up to 64 or 128, since they aren't important to be rendered at all. (This also optimize your vrad compiling time as well!)
Have you try adding hints and skips, as well as area_portals?

Is there a limit to the amount of faces I can apply lightmap 8 to? 2014-02-25 14:51 GMT+01:00 Skibur <beyondurwo...@hotmail.com>: Something is amiss. Check your texture's lightgrid map. Make sure they're set to an appropriate value. (You might have to optimize it between which is important and which is not important.) Also, just wanted to make sure, are there any viscluster interacting with waterbrush? Avoid doing that.

I'm using -textureshadows, -staticproppolys, and -staticproplighting, do they need to be in order for it to work? _______________________________________________ Csgo_sdk mailing list Csgo_sdk@list.valvesoftware.com https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/csgo_sdk _______________________________________________ Csgo_sdk mailing list Csgo_sdk@list.valvesoftware.com https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/csgo_sdk _______________________________________________ Csgo_sdk mailing list Csgo_sdk@list.valvesoftware.com https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/csgo_sdk
