Try making a box link it to your b_levelroot, put the +sky on one side and then try compiling that and see if you get the same error.

[et_cg]

Okay, I'll go ahead and do that...


Rawrrr.

It worked.

[et_cg]

It won't light this box though... Argh. It compiled, into a scenario and whatnot. But it won't light.

EDIT:

here's some info

Looks like the scenario was missing that time?

[et_cg]

Nope, here's a picture:



And another... (From Guerilla)




EDIT: I've had this happen before, but it was involving UAC I believe.

[Skyline]

No.... you named the .scenario files differently from the .ass file which is bwp?

[et_cg]

It's referencing correctly in the tags, though.

EDIT: I'm retarded.

[Skyline]

It said the bwp.scenario was missing. I don't think the BSP tag references the scenario tag, nothing does... the scenario tag references the BSp tag.

[et_cg]

Now what about the other problem I'm having? Not this recent one. lol

[et_cg]

Well, to just see it in Sapien, I gave it one of my other level's lightmaps. And it's looking lovely.

I guess letting out my little secret wouldn't hurt.







I'm basically converting a couple Halo 1 MP maps, and I figured I'd do Sidewinder and get it right. Having this problem, though, really deters my progress.

My plan is after I get a couple of conversions done, and a good set of shaders, I'll go ahead and release the shaders to the public, with what I learned about it all.

My hope was to help extend the support to new people, and others who are just too lazy to make their own.
