When the Lightmaps are built all the static meshes are duplicated and their textures are additive to give the look that the mesh is brighter or darker in that area. When you delete or move a static mesh the lightmap mesh does not update so you're still seeing the baked lightmap mesh. There's no way to delete them in the editor except by rebuilding the lightmaps for the entire map. To build the lightmaps for a map open the console and type: buildlightmap levels/whatever.map
Depending on the map it could take a bit of time. Building lightmaps also correctly updates the games grid bounds which you will need to do if you ever create or move objects to an area outside of the existing grid bounds (which are invisible to you in the editor, but can be seen in game by typing showgridbounds in the console, but really don't worry about that unless you get an error message that says something about gridbounds).

But clicking on the redraw lights button brings up the load map window and the other buttons don’t seem to help. What exactly do I need to do to edit these transparent objects?

For the next release I’m gonna make more changes to the other worlds too.
Anybody got an answer for my question? Posted by: thebestmlTBM« on: October 26, 2018, 06:03:07 PM »So not only you made the mod about weapons, but also maps too?
This oughta be interesting.  Posted by: Victorious_Games« on: October 26, 2018, 08:07:28 AM »As u guys may remember I was making some changes to the death marsh maps’ fog by getting rid of the black fog and replacing it with grey fog. I’ve got all that done and realized that the tops/cutoff points of the trees and the vines that hang from above are now very visible. I guess the black fog was used to hide this. So anyways I’m going through the maps again and adding tree tops and moving the hanging vines further up into the sky. It looks awesome and really makes the death marshes look like actual marshes. Here’s my problem.
After moving the vines I noticed that a transparent slightly visible version of them was left behind right where they use to be. I guess it was something that has to do with their lighting or hit detection? I’m really not sure. How do I remove this and add it to their new position? Posted by: Victorious_Games« on: September 27, 2018, 08:15:52 AM »Ok that makes sense. I’ll look into that. Thanks for the tip.

I want to add that foggy sky look like the original Turok game had in the jungle levels. Is it a mesh or a particle effect? I got something going already with a custom particle effect I made but it doesn't get that same effect.I think that's done under sector properties by setting sky height at ground level, that is if T2 sector properties are the same as T1.

Posted by: Raptor Dan« on: September 06, 2018, 08:59:31 PM »I'm itching to see how everything looks in the final release, hoping to see more media of it soon!
Posted by: Victorious_Games« on: September 06, 2018, 03:09:43 PM »I forgot to post an update on this issue. I did the same thing but it didn’t fix the problem. It seems that if u don’t go through a portal then u don’t have a checkpoint. So if u load up a map and don’t go through at least 1 portal then you’ll get this error.
