This should work

Just a quick extra, coloured ambientlight is addable, by changing the ratios of teh numbers :)

20 20 20 = 20 red, 20 green, 20 blue

So for a green ambienlight, tilt the ratio

20 30 20

ect :)

No problem :wink: Just thought you might want to know, as in my pre-.map days i had wanted to know how to do this for ages! And found out here at .map :)

Maybe i should right up a general knowledge tut? for mapping? using 'tip of the day' and all that, and gleaning info off the sight, and my own knowledge, as i remember asking what FPS was :P Could be easier if there was a tut...
