Nice fitting music too. To add shadows, you go in the light edit mode and put in the lights by holding CTRL and clicking, you select one light and click "enter", then check on the option "Cast Shadows" so now that light will be able to make shadows, and then you go to browedit menu, under "Generate" and click the "Calculate Lightmap with Shadows" (Or just "Calculate Lightmaps). Usually you want to make it so that most of the lights in your map don't actually cast shadows, and you put one or a few ones that actually do. For a open-door daytime map, it's common to put just one light, really really far up the map, in some sort of corner, and make it cast shadows (with the light range for the whole map) so that it represents the sunlight, which means all shadows will be facing one direction. Then the rest of the lights are just for illuminating. Edited October 17, 2012 by kenedos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
