Hey,
I've been working on a map for TF 2 since Januari this year and I'm now trying to finish it in the upcoming week. But I keep having a huge problem with the lighting.
In hammer there are only 3 types of light but these lights only come from one point.
Since there is a huge hall (from a factory) in my map and there are a lot of very small tubes, which you can walk through, I can't find a way to bring light in it
For the hall I have to use at least 50 lights to prevent it from having dark spots. And I can't place lights in the tube cuz they light up the wall near the light source with very bright light and it quickly fades.
So I was wandering if it is possible to make one type of light in my whole map. Like there is light everywhere when I use Hammer. I think it's possible cuz in 2Fort there are tubes as well, and they can't be lighted by the skybox (with the Environment light) and there arent lights in there as well.
I really hope that someone can help me out, it would mean a lot to me...
Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad English
