Basic Half-Life Map Support For Stock GLQuake

in baker's stuff, I don't see the divide-by-3 for the lightmap offsets.
Also, that 'beam' brush in baker's screeny seems to have the same lined effects, as well on the walls.

Ah, right... step #13 is wrong. It greyscales it, but leaves it as 3-componant. Which is wrong.
What you should do is divide the surface lightmap offsets by 3, and average the 3 rgb lightmap values and scale them down.

so:
loadmodel->lightdata[i] = loadmodel->lightdata[i+1] = loadmodel->lightdata[i+2] = out;
becomes:
loadmodel->lightdata[i/3] = out;

but yeah, you need to divide the msurface_t lightofs field by 3 too, but only for halflife maps.

spike doing this has actually made the lighting worse. there is a tutorial for some kind of a shadow fix or better shadows or something. if i implement that do you think it would fix the issue im having? because that last fix made it worse as you can see below.

its a custom map, with the textures compiled into it. the pictures are up above. would you guys like a link to the map to see if you get the same issues?

edit: nvm downsider helped me fix my problem.
