decoration illumination

seanboy · Oct 21, 2001

I have inserted some decorations into my level (trees,etc.).

The problem is they appear to be unlit when i play the level but they r NOT set to bunlit=true in the editor any suggestions on how to remove the illumination!!

much appreciated!!

Well, I know that some decorations are set up to work as partial light sources as well. Check your decorations and see if the values under LightColor are all set to zero. This is a shot in the dark so I don't know how helpful it might be.

We could use some more info:

1) It appears unlit in-game, but what about in the editor?
2) Im assuming you rebuilt after adding these decos, yes?
3) Could you post acouple pics and/or a copy of the map?
4) Did you use special lights or bright corners anywhere?

Here are a couple of screenshots from the editor and from the game. The outdoor area is illuminated by a zonelight.

This is the in game shot.

Here is what you do. Open the decoration properties and look for the item called ScaleGlow. It is set at 1 by default. Make is 0.1 instead and your decorations will stop glowing and look much better.

I adjusted the scale glow to 0.1 and the problem still persists.

Could it be because the tree decorations are masked??

Help!

I don't think that's your prob. Attach the map so we can fiddle with it.

sometimes when decos sit too close to the radius of a light the look like butt ****

especially in outdoor areas. what about decreasing the radius of the lights that are currently in the map and adding in more lights away from the deco to make up for the loss of brightness.

i dont like scale glow on trees....

BTW which game are these for, gotta have it on my HD to test it ....

It's for unreal tournament.

It's not complete yet so I didn't want to post it just yet!

The ultimate novice · Oct 23, 2001

Tons of incomplete maps get posted here. It's not for review. No one "leaks" them to nali city or anything. It just helps to clarify the root of the problem. If you don't want to, that's fine, but it may take longer to rectify.

Problem has been rectified!!!

Thx Everyone who posted, appreciate it much!

The solution is to set the decos to bunlit=true in order for the scale glow function to work!!

As soon as the map is complete i'll post it for y'all!!

Thx Again!!
