I'm making a new multiplayer level, and all I need to do is add the stuff into the map using Sapien and type the cache-build tool code. But then in Sapien, it doesn't show the map, and an error message comes up from the bottom. Here's what it says from my debug -

Here's a picture -

In guerilla, change your scenario to where it says "skies" from solo to multiplayer in the dropdown box.

Did you calculate radiosity?

That, and did sapien just automatically close on you after you opened it?

It only closed when I first opened it, and how do you calculate radiosity?

2 steps.

1. Reinstall HEK
2. In the command prompt, type in

tool lightmaps levels\yourmap\yourmap yourmap 0(or1) 0.0000001

or you can do it in sapien heres how



(hit the ` key under escape)
type>radiosity_quality 0
(hit enter)
type>radiosity_start
(hit enter)

-- 3 numbers will apear they will count down when the reach zero it done ---

type>radiosity_save
(hit enter)


that should work i use sapien too do it because i think its easyer

and also if you type radiosity_quality 1 it will do the radiosity at a higher quality but it will take all night

Didn't work

1. Do you have the latest graphics drivers for your graphics card?
2. Did you put in a sky?
3. Did you set the map type to multiplayer?
4. Did you get any errors in tool while making the scenario?

Do what i said in tool.
