Thank guys for your positive comments. As far as the light goes slyminds, the white round one in my screenshot is in Common textures folder, light1_glow is the name. It was intended for a ceiling light I think but I plopped it as a for sided one on top of a pole :biggrin: And, yep this is my very first map, tons of mistakes which I guess helps me learn. I did lots of copying of walls and stuff and didn't realize I was doing it, which has taken me a while to fix, but trial and error I guess. Oh, and GEEZ, it takes over 2 hours to bundle the bsp...I have learned patience...well sorta..... I'm almost there Jewel

Your screenshots look great. You might go back and use the detail brush feature to speed up your compile times a bit. Looking forward to seeing the map ready for download and play.

You can either go to the selection section of the menu in radient or just use control M. Select the brush, group, etc that you want to turn into a detail brush and do one of the above. Don't make any outside walls, floor, or sky of the map detail or you will cause leaks. Make things like crates, pictures, furniture, trim, etc detail and the map will compile much faster. I have never noticed any change in the way the map looks after this is done so it shouldn't take away anything from the quality of the map

Wow, I did what ya said and it took an hour and a half off my bsp bundle time. I wished I'd known that 6 or more bundles ago @ over 2 1/2 hours each....DOH! Thanks so much for advice.... Jewel :razz:
