Why the light_environment's direction and colour doesn't match the skybox texture? (the most obvious is in the first screenshot)

Just because

If you like the current lighting, pick a skybox texture that is more permissive. Sunset textures look artistic but they are very restrictive regarding lightning direction and colour.

I'm really liking the direction this map is taking and shaping up; props to you guys (no pun intended)

serialmapper has a point though as the environmental lighting direction being the opposite of the sun's position cannot be...unseen

You could change the skybox or the lighting setup, however, one way to deal with this (if you really like this skybox and don't want to change the lighting angles) is to edit the skybox texture itself (photoshop, Gimp...) and repaint the sun in the correct location for your map's settings. You would need to save the skybox texture under a different name but it should be a small price to pay.

Best of luck and looking forward to more progress and beauty shots.

Yeah I noticed the second sun on the screenshots because you are not able to see both of the suns at the same time playing on the map We will fix it sometime soon. ~~EDIT~~ Map has been updated !http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/fi…tscn=1480892086

i tried your mapupdate all in all some areas are better now. but i think the mapcenter , the bridge was better before it was more realistic the truck is a nice idea but its a 60s-70s truck and in real war it would never get as much into the city the subbridge area is now fantastic also the docks on the docks is a weird graphicsbug in one of the hangars the churcharea is near to perfect but i would add a chokepoint where you can get from graveyard to the bridge a bit curved so germans cannot shoot in hope this feedback helps you

P.S: sorry for the layout

Several stone rubble models are above ground at the church and you can get stuck in them.

As an ally, I spawned in the sky and then near the bridge - falling to my death.

I did.

here some screenshots from the problems

I also get the purple textures, not just on your map but a few others too.

yeh that s a commonly lighting problem sometimes if your editor is not loaded correctly.

I built some maps with normal hammer from sdk 2007 first and saw this texture problems too.

Now i am using the hammer.bat from DOI. All works fine but some skytextures of the game seem to be bugged since the last update.

Today I did a pretty huge change to the 3D skybox, I'm now very satisfied with how it looks. As it's all mesh now, I baked all the lighting information from a cycles render (256 samples) into these textures and it looks fairly realistic

So.. then.. is there any weakness for this map at all?
