The map has just been barely announced and you already have people wanting to test it out...

Who wouldn't want to test it... The map looks amazing and it's just the beginning

1) I do have a lightgrid all over the map. It's lightgrid_Volume
2)I'm checking it right now

Edit:
2) it doesn't seem like it helped, instead it just made  the shadow even bigger

Sorry for not responding so long but I'm working on an update right now

I've been struggling with lights for some time now, I can't figure out what causes 2 of my problems that I couldn't resolve.

1)


A lot of things, not only trees, but literly everything sometimes gets really shiny (as you can see in the picture). I dont really know what causes the problem. The only way to fix it, that i found out, is to remove the object and place the same one over again, try in different positions or place. Sometimes it works and sometimes I have to try it several times until it finally works.

2)


I have strange shadowns in some parts of the map. There is no such thing that can make shadows look like that. I have even put a source of light next to it and it didn't dissapear

I would really appreciate any kind of help since I'm struggling with those problems for some time now

Everything worked just fine until recently Asset Viewer started crushing. Whenever i run the program it automaticly gave me error that the program stopped working. I have copied all the original files from bin to the cod directory. Now when i open the program I get this error:



Did anyone ever had this problem and does anyone know how  to fix it?

I'm not sure how but It's fixed. I changed few things in the tarrain patch and just to be sure I moved the whole map higher. It didn't really look like the fog that you get when you get lower since It should be everywhere but I had It just in some parts of the map, so I thought that It wasnt the case. I even had the fog in higher parts of the map and there were parts lower that didn't have the fog so moving the map seemed stupid. This time just in case I moved it and It's fixed. Thank you guys a lot.

In several parts of the map the floor is kind of weird.



As you can see on the picture the floor turns grey/white and i don't know why. It happens only in several places around the map but the rest looks fine. Does anyone know what causes the problem?

It is my first map. I have never had any contact with zombie modding before, but I finally thought that I should give it a try. I've been working on the map for over a month now. I don't know why I never posted my map here ( don't ask me why, even I don't know), but now I'm close to finishing it and I finally thought I should make a post. I've been learning everything from the basics to more advanced stuff so making the map took me a lot of effort. Don't expect it to have many cool stuff, but I try my best making the map as fun as possible.

Bo weapons
No dogs

Jukebox
Buyable ending

Update 18.07.2014

Sorry for not updating or responding for so long but i've been really bussy latly. I just moved out of the city and had a lot of work. I didn't have neither internet nor time to work on the map or even login and check what's going on it the community. I started working again few days ago and since i did quiet a lot since the first post I'm giving you some things that i did so far.


I have done most of the things that i wanted. I still have about 2-3 weeks of work (depends how much time I will have).

I have also 2 major problems with the lights and I would appreciate if you could help me out with it

Always make a backup and put it somewhere on your desktop!!! Even if you change 1 little thing, always make sure you replace the old one with the new one on your desktop. It will save you in the long run

I have figured it out by now

I hhave used TOM_FF_Extractor and I've extracted all the .ff and IWD files but the .map file is nowhere to be found. Is that file saved in a completly different way? Is it impossible to get .map file?

Nope, I didn't do a thing, I didn't mess with anything

I hopefully saved the map in other place, just in case. But even with that save it's like few day of extra work

I have just noticed that even though i compiled the map, it didn't replace the good map with  the new one, that doesn't have hardly anything. Is there a way to get the .map file from the appdata folder?

I'm having a real bad  time now with the launcher and radiant. For some reason it deleted almost everything from my map. I am saving my project recently, I make sure I save it few times before i exit the radiant. But for some reason today when I moved a big part of my map and I exited the map almost everything was deleted. I'm pretty sure that I saved it, I clicked at least a couple of times to save. Then i compiled my map and it took just like 3 seconds, so I was wondering whatt he hell is wrong. I went back into radiant, then It asked me if I want to load the last save ( it says something when you dont save your map and the autosave is newer than my save. I am 100% sure that I saved it) so I clicked no and I've noticed everything got deleted. My question is if it's possible to load that autosave back or it got deleted allready.

I just found that there is an autosave.map in root\bin but this autosave is way older than my map. It is an autosave when I started playing with radiant, so this can't be the right one since I didn't open that "map" for at least a month

I'll try doing everything all over again, maybe I did something wrong and the mod just doesnt see the file

It seems like he allready updated the IWD file in the latest update, so I just replaced it with the same one and it still doesnt work

if the game crashes due to missing images this includes the vulture-aid and electric cherry shaders.

just replace the IDW!

I've just found it like few minutes ago. I tried it and compiled the map, but for some reason didnt work for me I think. Just to be sure I'm compiling once again and replaced all the files from that download link instead of just the IWD

Well ,there weren't many files that i could have missed, but i pasted them again, compiled  the map and it still doesnt work
