I think you are using entity suns wrong. Your entity sun must exist somewhere within the map hull. Then use an appropriate sky shader everywhere you want your sun to cast light. http://www.map-review.com/index.php?page=tutorial_view&id=16...  [Read More]

To create the effect you mention you need to create a shader with your chosen textures and add a glow parameter to the blending stage with glow texture and possibly an optional flare effect. A possible shader with the glow parameter highlighted coul...  [Read More]

The vehicle respawn question has been answered a couple of dozen times by now. Use the search option. I haven't been able to make func_plat to behave in the way you described (in Jedi Academy) but you can get good results with func_door....  [Read More]

How about making them func_static and affecting them to move and rotate with ref_tags? It shouldn't be too difficult. Just search Raven's scripts that came along with the SDK, experiment and you should do fine....  [Read More]

Everytime I compile my map it has "Chose a 0 valued axis" at light stage. It's not that fatal though because only thing it seems to affect is that it stops the compile monitoring for GtkRadiant, the actual compile itself finishes well and t...  [Read More]
