Found this fix out, I've seen alot of posts from other newbies about it. If you have a pitch black map but you've properly configured worldspawn try deleting and reinserting dm_spawn point. I had 2 maps where I even added lights outside right on top of spawn point but nothing no light, world spawn settings were copied from dawnville settings. But deleting the spawn point and reinserting it worked.

From a newbie thanks for the loads of tutorials & help on your site they are awesome.

I tried that and i tried with worldspawn but it does not work
my map is still pitchblack, does anybody have any other solution.

i changed my sky texture on the sky box and that worked for me...try matching the worldspawn setting to the sky texture also

I tried that to but my map aint brighter i give up soon.
It seem i am the only one that hasn`t fixed this
if i can call it a problem but i have done this many time for cod and uo and i dont understand what am i doing wrong.

Hi Zlatan.

I am new to the CoD2 mapping game, but I can tell you what I did to make my map visible.

I removed all the mod .iwd files in my main folder (including PAM), and after that two things happened. I was able to select "dm_spawn" from the "mp" list (rather than just "global intermission") and all my world spawn settings worked.

Hope it helps.
