I'm having this problem all over my map. Some props dont get
'hit' by the cubemap when other props right next to them do get cubemap
info. do cubemaps have some kind of max prop affected?

it almost seems random all over my map, a few props here and there dont get cubemap info.

I've noticed this thing aswell. The cattail prop also has this annoying
little "feature". And no, it has nothing to do with the number of props
in your map. I did some testing on the matter .

Bah, I can't figure it out. Don't be tempted to use an info_lightorigin cause; it just won't work :sad: .

the rails are all in the same lighting yet some of them pick up cubemap
information and others dont. note the rail in the forground to
the left and the on in the forground to the right, one is dark (thats
right) the other is grey and washed out (thats way wrong).
