Mapping help

[Kylerocks]

I'm making a map but I'm having troubles with a brush that is darkened, althought it actually has a light right in front of it

Can anyone help?

Where is the light in the room coming from? Is it from behind the player?

It's in front of my player in the image.

That's weird. Could you take a snapshot in GtkRadiant? --  I've never had this problem before.

 

What sort of light did you place there,  and what was the value of it? (100, 400, 900..)

This may also be caused by another light in your map that casts a shadow to that specific area.

I solved it resizing the brush. Maybe it was too big or had a bad shape.

Now I have a problem with the water. I used water_quicktrip (has no shader image in Radiant) twice, but it only works in one place (the other is just invisible water).
