i was just trying to run radiosity in sapien but it is taking a really long time. I just put it on for 8 hours and nothing happened and my computer froze. Then i found out that it took someone 6 days to run radiosity for a map of about the same size as mine. But i also heard that you can run radiosity in tool and it is much faster, how do i run it in tool?

Code: Select all
tool lightmaps <location of your scenario file> <scenario_structure_bsp tag> <quality> <stop threshhold>
Additionally, you can use Tool-EX in SteelixB's HEK+ app, or Tool++ by Kornman00 instead of the command prompt.[/code]

ok so i'm doing it and this is what comes up
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition>tool lightmaps levels\tcort\tcort tcort 1 0.000001
Couldn't read map file './toolbeta.map'
i'm going to render final lightmaps for tcort of levels\tcort\tcort, and i'll stop when red+blue+green = 0.000001.
Hit control-c now if this isn't right.
WARNING: 1 clusters in structure_bsp levels\tcort\tcort have no background sound or sound environment.
start levels\tcort\tcort
what is this, does it mean i have an error because its stayed like this for a while now and hasnt done anything

unless this is the absolute final build of this map, which it isn't, try making the quality 0 and the stop threshhold about 1 or .5
