I didn't even know that existed

It's a little obvious. He has one track, then two, then the two cross, then it merges, etc.

Not to mention the control points.

What's the best way to get shadows on dynamic props from one sun light? or a lightmap at least.
I have the map separated in a few dynamic props (dynamic so they can have shadows) and I want each part to cast shadows on each other from one sun light.

 

[Fruity Snacks]

it looks like your in fullbright...

You'll want to add light_enviroment and env_sun.

This this will help: VDC lighting article

If you manage to properly light it right, I'll love you forever.

Static props also receive and cast shadows, you don't need dynamic ones.

Thanks, well I added a light_enviroment and env_sun but there's just no change, I also changed the lights color it doesn't seem to be affecting the models :S it just exactly the same as that screenshot.

I was compiling without "VIS" and "rad" in "fast" mode, i also tried setting each prop light to the "sun" light
though still no changes, what am I doing wrong?

Another "problem" is that by using brushes with nodraw there's bullet impact decals or spray decals for that matter, is there any way to get the decals showing up even with nodraw on the brushes?

Sorry for my noobiness I am new to Hammer, thanks for your patience and help =)

@Joodude Will do my best ;D

Clearly, you have forgotten to seal your map.

 

[KingOfSandvich]

If you run your map without lighting then go straight to the one with lighting, you have to type "mat_fullbright 0" into the console (cheats must be on) to actually load the lightmaps. After that, I recommend you reload via changelevel or map command, then your lighting should be there if RAD worked properly. Also, don't change the lighting origins on your props just yet. That sets where the prop receives light, not its main light source.

[Penguin]

Well it sure looks cool!

 

[nik]

dude, change it from water to a bottomless pit. it would look perfect

 

[Fruity Snacks]

Going to go with that, take the boat out... and make it hanging by a wire or something. And then make it a bottomless deathpit
