did go radiosity_quaility_0, or your sub object material migth be messed up, or you might not have shaders

I had that aswell... The problem I had was that I had put the names on the materials in the wrong place

akm, did you let radiosity finish

let the numbers count down to 0.00000 on all of the 3 numbers

akmassassin · Post by **akmassassin** » Thu Jun 24, 2004 5:56 am

yes but there is no countdown its starts at 0.00000

Yes I have exactly the same problem. I think its something with the bitmap or shader...

If it starts at 0.0.0 then it's not finding your textures

Yeah, either that or you didn't add a sky

. If you didn't add a sky -- add one, and make sure you have all of your .shader_environment tags in the right place.

If you 'did all that' it would have worked. Go back through Kirks's tutorial videos (all of them, from start to finish, not just the guerilla/sapiens ones) and find the point where you went wrong. They are excellent vids, but sometimes it's easy to miss a point & the map f***'s up as a consequence. It may take you time to find the answer, but when you do, you will never make the same mistake again eh?

Also, if you find it, post a follow up so if anyone else has the same probs, they know how to sort it out.
