.Map :: MoHAA Mapping

Hey guys, I'm not sure what caused it, but I seem to have a big black shadow on one of my walls. I'm not exactly sure how to get rid of it. I've tried deleting the brush and making a new one, didnt work. I then tried moving the entire map and that also didnt work. I did a search on here, and I couldnt' seem to find this topic, which I think there was one of this before. I just don't know what to look for. If anyone could help me with this problem, I would be very greatful.

All i figured out Hoss was that all you had to do was take that one big wall brush and split into a bunch of smaller wall brushes....dunno why it worked but it did!!

Ha ha, Doogues worked with me on it before he posted. But anyway no need for any suggestions.

Hey! Wait! Just let me get this straight: the shadow came from nowhere, and disappeared then you split the wall into two pieces?

I actually split the wall into about 7 or 8 smaller burshes.....but i also use -fast on the Vis compile....that might've done something too...

I changed what Doog did. He had it in a lot of pieces and I changed it to two pieces and the shadow never came back. So there was no need to have that many brushes makin up the wall, only two worked.

Any idea what was casting the actual shadow?

maybe try and unite them again (ctlr +u ) and c if the shadow comes back?

I remember in a post i read a while back saying something like...if you had a bunch of smaller brushes connected to one larger brush...it creates weird effects, thats what made me think of splitting the wall brush....

thats by far the strangest thing ive ever seen.

Nope I have no clue what made the shadow. There is nothing big enough in my map to do that. Other than the ceiling brush, there was nothing anywhere near that size.

Tell me one of you tried a light entity.
