Don't worry...i read the other posts and that's not the problem i have.
Well I'm quite a newbie at map building..and i followed a tutorial on how to make gel droppers..they work! but there's a problem.
Heres a screenshot http://steamcommunity.com/id/lolhitherelol/screenshot/577796899246800652?tab=public

The gel works. But it dosnt paint! But the gel is there. I can jump under the blue gel dispenser. So the gel is there.. but its not painting? Help?
btw DrawOnly is set to no

Put some lights in your map. Without them, everything is render fullbright, and the gel shader won't have none of that.

If you're having gel problems I feel bad for you, son. I've got 99 problems but science ain't one.
