Sun - ? help ?

Post by Sharpy »

Ok, I have decided to make the sun very last...
And when I tried to do it, I had made a big box around my whole map, and did the continuation of the tutorial, and when I tried to compile it, it takes so long to do so, and I notice that it messes up m MOHradiant and the compiler usually crashes out.

I am not sure what to do to get a sun and a sky if you know PLEASE help me, thanks so much guys you always help me out :) :D

Do not make a big box for a sky and sun!

Just make a small set of brushes tightly around your map and give them a sky texture. You can add a sun by adding key / value 'sunflarename' / 'sun' in the worldspawn.
