(i typed in radiosity_start)

[New101]

the problem lies in the model. It has been a while since I have compiled a map yet I believe the debug.wrl is in the halo custom edition folder. Go into your max file and import the wrl in the halo custom edition folder and look for the blue error. You have to fix the degenerate triangle before you can complete radiosity. Someone fix the debug.wrl directory if I am wrong.

[scout1337]

how do i fix it then?

[Inferno]

Import the wrl file. Select any of the Faces in the map that have the blue triangles on them. Then add the UVW modifier and hit "box" then "fit" then right click on the UVW modifier and hit "collapse" and export your map. it should fix it.

If not then box UVW your entire map. That's the fastest way to fix it.

well i just deleted what was selected then i just targte wielded em together because the 2 triangle u could barley even see unless u zoomed 20thousands times lol

it was on the inside of my cave which made it even harder to get to...
so do u think what i did would help? i re compiled the stucture again too now when i goto sapien it doesnt load and ive tryed the whole copalibility tab thing

[Inferno]

Show us the last few entry's in your debug.txt

Just telling us that sapien doesn't work isn't going to help us help you so in the future post the debug.txt entry's.

And.... "20thousands" :XD:

i think its cause i re compiled the structure and it wont overwrite so im thinking i delte the snerio then compile again

[Higuy]

No, open your scenario in Gurilla. Go all the way to the bottom of it and find were it referes to the Scenario_Structure and delte the second thing in the drop down box.

Since you already had a thread open I won't yell at you about searching, but that's one of the most common problems people post about.
