You need to add refelction probes to your map, right click and select them in the drop down menu, place them around your map, one in each room and again when you have a change in geometry

You may also need to create a lightgrid, to do this cover the playable areas of you map in a brush with the 'lightgrid' texture, then you compile as normal..

How do I cover the playable areas? Select the floor, walls etc. and assign the light grid - texture to them? WHen I try that it just replaces the original texture with the lightgrid.

Please give me a step by step description, I am newb.

Just make 1 big brush that covers everything and assign the lightgrid texture to it (so the brush surrounds everything you can get to in the map)

I believe it's easier on the system resources to break the brush up into smaller brushes but yeah, that's the general idea.

I got the same problem with the red models and stuff. I added reflection probes and I covert the whole map with light grid texture. But it only gets worse.
Can someone help me please?

How high is your lightgrid rexture? it doesnt have to be too high as long as it isnt the same height as the skybox.

Background scenery should be covered with the Light Grid Sky texture, any playable space should use the Light Grid texture (the purple one)


Only 1 reflection probe per portal cell. If you dont have any portals, then its best to test compile with just 1 reflection probe.

Make sure once you have reflections compile that you build the Fast File again.

If a reflection probe is touching or inside a solid object it may cause the reflections to compile wrong, a reflection probe touching or outside of the skybox is a 'leak'.

Check the whole of your d3dbsp compile log for any errors whatsoever.

When I click on compile reflections it's done in 1 sec. Could that be the problem?
