Hi, I'm toying with the new map editor, and haven't used radiant since CoD UO mapping, so I guess these problems might be a lighting issue.

Two problems; firstly Nightvision dosen't work. The screen goes a smaller size and gets the little lines (as happens when you turn on nightvision) but it stays normal colors (ie. not green) and I cant see any more than without Nightvision.

Second problem, although I'm not sure if they are linked, is that my characters hands/gun/grenades etc are multicolored. I tried adding a reflection probe, but it did nothing, do I have to add several? or is it more complicated than that?

Thanks in advance, Sharp

Still haven't figured this out, when I load the map I also get the error at the begining could not load "vision/mp_mapname.vision", so I guess theres something important I missed out when making the map, no clue what tho.

Any help would be appreciated

Cheers, Sharp

for night vision you need to write a .gsc file, just copy the one made for mp_test, but rename it to mp_mapname.gsc recompile it, and you are golden. For the rainbow part, you need a grid file for the map, an easy way to avoid this is to make a brush that goes over (like a roof) the entire map, have it textured with light volume.
hope this helps.

red error, you mean a big red thing where your arms should be? update the zone file again then recompile the fast file, that may work.

if you mean the error report in when /dev is on, don't worry about it, it won't effect the game
