Okay, so I have a prop that just refuses to render. The actual light that it emits: no problem (via a second Light entity beneath it). Also, I know that the irritating view distance bubble has also not screwed it up. So I turn to you folks.

Again.

check the fade settings in hammer, Sometimes they get screwed up and it gets always faded in game. one shoudl be 0 and the other -1 for a never fade object. [addsig]

Check your fade distances, make sure they are not set to 4 or some small amount of units.

Nope, its not set to fade. I've learned about that a fair amount having accidentally adjusted the view distance on more than one occasion.

then it may be that its set to a prop type its not supposed to be set to. i.e. a prop meant to be a physic prop set as a static or something like that.

post your compile log. [addsig]

As I did for my other problem, here's the exact same compile log. I suppose I should start actually paying attention to them.

Thanks RS6! I'm halfway done with my problems in general and completely done with this one. I think that my displaced brush, as large and deep as it is, still requires that I "box" in my hallway with a solid brush.

Do those of you who don't use skyboxes have this issue (being that my map is completely enclosed)? My lights look all nice now. Thanks again!

yea one thing about displacements is they don't seal off the map. [addsig]

Something that might help in leak hunting is turning off all the vis groups that hammer will automatically create for you while mapping. As levels need to be entirely sealed by world brushes, turning off the default vis groups should hide displacements and brush entities, leaving you with a clutter free view of your main hull. If you see any holes out in to the void while doing this, you know you have found a leak.

Thanks Reno! That's a great idea; I'm on it right now. This mapping stuff is addictive.
