curve out of light processing

[AradorasXeon]

I wonder if there's a way to skip some special curves out of light processing? (my fountain looks terrible after light procces)

I think maybe you posted this in the wrong section. Unless it somehow pertains to my map because I have no idea what you're referring to.

But the answer to your question is a bit over my head sorry man

Two options:

1. Use a func_group for the bits of water which you don't want light, and in the func_group, add these keywords:

 

_cs: 3

_rs: 3

 

The water should no longer cast or receive shadows.

 

2. Create a new shader for the water using all the standard properties and add the following keywords:

nolightmap

nodlight

Damn. Lol.

Some of you guys should keep tally on how many people you've helped...

 

 

 

 I am going to try and get this thread moved now that it has ran it's course.

Uhm tahnk you. I still have problem, but probably my fault, thought it was light process, but it looks like a vis process roblem. Normaly I'd just make it detail, but I can't do that with curves :/

[eezstreet]

Yes you can. Use the hotkey for it or use the detail keyword in the shader.

[Xycaleth]

No, patches cannot be made detail brushes. As the name says, a detail brush is a *brush*. However patches don't create splits anyway. Adding the detail keyword to the shader doesn't make a surface a detail brush either - it simply adds detailed shading (you see more detail the closer you are to the surface).

Okay I made two sreenshots about the problem:

 

This is with bps and vis process.

 

 

This is with -light process, I may lighten it up later, but I think you see my point and the problem.

Its q3map_nolightmap in the very first stage of your shader (not just nolightmap)

 

Posting the shader would be hepful!

It's the default:

common/water2_waterfall_Tutorial

 

I am not good with making textures, that's why I use default ones. (and I have no idea how to do them)
