My new problem...shiny reflection?

Post by sc jester »

I'm not sure how to explain this, but here goes. When I go into my map there is this line going from the end of my gun to a ladder that I just had added to the map. This line starts at a point at the end of my gun and spreads out to about 16-20 units by the time it gets to the ladder. The line is kind of shiny and multi colored and flashes sometimes while I'm walking around the map. I thought maybe it had something to do with the texture I used on the ladder, so I changed it and it's still there. Something simple?

Maybe you could post a screenshot to let us see your problem?

I think you have an invalid brush somewhere.

Any bad normal or degenarate plane errors when compiling?

Any errors in the console?

Come to think of it,there was a degenerate plane error. I'll delete the ladder and try again. I am registered but couldn't login for a few days, every time I tried it would send me right back to the login page. Thanks for the help.

ok ive had the same problem with the lines it is just when you have to many holes in something... for instance i made a castle and put holes in the wall all the way around the castle so you could shoot outta them and when compiling i geuss it just gets confused and makes the texture not display and it replaces it with a blank one that seems to follow you around the map :? im assuming you must have a large ladder or the steps are too close to eachother or something because you mentioned that the line is aout 20 units wide at the end... oh well :?
