Sunflare?

Post by Bassie_w »

Yo Mates,

I'm building another map (i'm almost ready) and there it's night.
So I have sunflarename : none

But in the game I see sunflare. What am I doing wrong?

Ive seen this before - Do you get the sunflare if you start your game and go directly into your map without going into any other maps.

When I go directly to my map (at the end of the compiling)

Compile settings are:
BSP : (nothing)
VIS: -Fast
LIGHT: -Bounce 0

I compiled mohdm7.map again and there was no sunflare...

If you open the bsp with notepad and look at the map detail to confirm that suflarename is none ?

maybe set suncolor and sundirection all to 0

In my burcht.bsp file: "sunflarename" "none"
So that's good

My skybox is africannight, I think that's without sunflare.

Doesn't work, than is the sun on the horizon. But you can still see it.

Try deleting the 'sunflare' , 'sunflarename', 'sundirection' and 'sundiffuse' keys and their values from Radiant and recompiling.

I have a map at the moment that uses the africanight sky and I don't have any of those values in radiant and I have no sunflare.
