need help ASAP
Lol, by scale I meant "get a sense of how much number-crunching is going on", not scale as in how big the room is.
Setting the light-maps to 64 should help though. (If you get weird shadows in some places, you might want to turn the number back down again in those places.)
Good luck with your map pack. I'm looking forward to playing it.

so, that's ok? :3
and you look forward to playing my map? XD
coming from someone who made such an amazing map (manic mechanic), I'm amazed O.o
Make every brush you don't neccessarily need to cast a shadow a func_detail. Reduces compilation time A LOT.
(percentage calculation sphere self-test failed!)
108.1% done, -8.1% remaining...
Released here!
All maps for Portal (1/2) worth playing are mirrored here.
ok, I'm sort of new to technical terms. I've been using my own "dictionary" with source and don't quite know what everything is XD
a brush is a block, right? like the walls etc?.
I know, unproffessional to not know, but I will know what it is, only by a different name X3
Detail brushes create shadows. They don't block VIS, however and simplifing VIS can create less work for RAD.
.....
now, I'm confused :/
is this ok?
I made a chair entity visible to show scale.
CARVE USER, KILL IT WITH FIRE
carve?
I did hollow on the tube, and for the giant room, I used hollow........
I did hollow on the tube, and for the giant room, never carve...
well, actually, I did once, but it was for my first map :3
Look at those giant ugly-ass triangles forming around the large central cylinder. That means carve.
