<div class="IPBDescription">Console errors inside</div>Can't seem to find a log file. I managed to get a screenshot using fraps, using print screen returns all black results. These are the console errors when I try to load my map.

    ha! I certainly hope that is the issue. Very easy to fix!

    Edit: Problem persists even after renaming map to ns2_emporium

    You need the ns2 game rules entity in your map.

    Thanks now it loads.

    However . . . 13 fps. And it's only a hallway. The official maps run relatively fine.

    Is anyone aware of some mapping mistakes that can cause such a performance hit? I think maybe I have overlapping light sources, but not sure what else.

    also I have to turn r_fog to false because it is way too intense.

    How many spotlights have you used? and did you enable shadows on your area lights?

    I think 4 spotlights, and I probably did enable shadows for the lights.

    If I can't fix it knowing this I'll upload the map file.

    Thanks

    Is there any lua spam in the console?


    [edit]
    type this at run in your start menu and look for the log.txt after you loaded the map. Easier to post then a screenshot of the console :)

    Hey! The new update gives me 100 fps!

    I will do what you suggested when I come down from this excited craze!

    If you turn the lights (point lights) into shadow casting, you're essentially turning them into 14 spotlights each. The extra shadow calculations can cause a lot of lag for your gpu. Stick to spotlights, and turn shadows off for props that don't need shadows.
