[-=Superfly=-]

For some reason my map is on fullbright, i am compiling with VIS, BSP and RAD and have tried different types of lights, what an i missing?

Have you made sure 'mat_fullbright' is '0' in console?

Check if there are any leaks in your map.

Look at the compile log and see if it's complaining about missing "lights.rad"

Check the map properties for the ambient light level. If the map type needs a map_info entity then add one or adjust its properties.

If you haven't already, restart HL2. After my HL2 runs a fullbright map, all maps it runs are fullbright.

I had this problem, and deleting the SDK and letting it redownload it solved it perfectly. Then again, that was because of an error within the lights.rad -- so if you're not getting that, perhaps don't bother.
