Ok, so I fix my lighting issues with the lightmap tool, how do I save? The 'Save lightmaps' button is greyed out... I want to see my changes in game. Thanks

the lightmap tool is the airbrush looking tool in sapien that lets you draw lighting onto faces in your map to touch it up. its the second item in the toolbar. you might be on my msn, i just haven't been on recently

Even though it's enabled in Kornman's version of Sapien it does NOT WORK AT ALL. Just forget it. They (gearbox/bungie) didn't code that part. :wink:

Also, the reason your's could go overnight is because it was a small map. On outdoor maps, you'll be looking at a good 20 hours on a good processor.
