You know, the average map log file is about what? 20 to 40kb? Well, today I broke the record.

I, Wild Card, am the first to be able to lock up my Athlon 2500 512mb DDR ram with a wooping 26mb log file

W00t!!!!

What I'd like to know, why was the log file plucked filed with over 2000 pages worth of this line:

Warning: Too many direct light styles on a face(?,?,?)

Because you have too many named light entities lighting a face in any given area ... You can even look it up here at the pit. [addsig]

Oh yea I forgot to change that, lol, all the lighting in the level uses that new text light on and off thing but I needed to give them a name. So theres about 40 or so lights with same name.

[edit] I knew about the error if you had to many different lights lighting the same brush but didnt know about the name thing
