(Help Me!) Finally Got my Map to Compile!! But New Problems Have Arose! (HELP ME!)

Alright... I finally got the map I wanted to compile to compile, and Load, but when it loads all the rooms are Pitch black, and if I look up I get a lag effect of where I see every frame of animation as if it were frozen to the ceiling..

so I went back and made a simple square room.. No lag effect, but the room is still totally pitch black!

The lack of light is due to a lack of lights, go figure. :p

 

Right click on the x/y plane, and select light, you'll want a bunch.

 

(Sidenote: Some textures have ambient light effects, but none of those are sufficient to totally illuminate.)

 

The crazy laggy frame issue is simple also. It's because there's nothing in that area, I'm guessing you didn't texture your sky, you need something there or a sky texture . Texturing it will totally fix that.

Well its my first time making a map so I followed a tutorial and make a simple "box" map. The compiler pops up for a second and then disappears... Ive checked everything and right now im reinstlaling everything! By the way do you have AIM? It would be a lot easier to talk to you on tha. If so, what is your aim name? Mine is UsEr0OoXoO0.

Thats what was going on with mine at first... but then I switched my maps to be saved in c:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars JK II Jedi Outcast\gamedata\base\maps and everything started working properly. recheck your save spot, alot of people were having this problem....

 

 

I am still having the darkness problem, even with lights, I want my level to look like it's in the middle of the day outside.. also how to you get a scrolling paralex sky?

Armchair's first map worked the first time he loaded it. Behold MY SINGLE TINY SQUARE ROOM! It even has a whopping 3 weapons lying in the CORNERs!

For some reason people don't like tiny square rooms so I'll have to work harder...

 

Eventually I came to know quite alot about Half-Life's WorldCraft map editor and could do quite a bit with it, though I had no server to put maps I'd made on...

 

Maybe I can do something nice with this in time.
