thats what my level looks like right now. It doesn't look like its before running radiosity, and it doesn't look like after i run it. When i type in radiosity_quality 1/0, all it says is 1/0 (whatever i typed in). I followed kirk's tutorial so is it possible that its because i didn't do exact portals and portals like in the HEK tut?

After you set the quality, type in radiosity_start and then type radiosity_save after all numbers reach zero, although, you can save it whenever you want, I usually save it pretty soon after I start it when I am just testing.

i did a quality of one, which is what kirk said to do if you're gonna distriburte the map, and this is what it looks like now....

Well, that is what you have to type in for it to show up, why didn't you try it in the first place?
