Is there any way to increase the ambientLightLevel above 26?
Some maps are still very dark even on 26

Life Changing Mod thank you Modder

why my gmod always crash when i change the environment light to dark fog, i just wanna play nextbot thing and it crash

@Monochrome
that hasnt happened for me it has been working fine I have been able to reload the map and it work and anything that gets messed up goes back to normal

helo

JOOONAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

sorry bro but this mod brakes all of the maps and there is now way to remove the lighting that i set and i want to reset it so pls fix this

Can this remove all the lighting pre-baked into the map? I've been trying to disable all the lights in a map, but some of them aren't beams and aren't attached to any props. Is there a way to remove them?

How to save a map editing?

It doesn't. That's not possible with how this add-on does things, sorry. That might be doable with shaders now that those can be in addons, but I'm not sure and won't have time to look into that for quite a while.

thought this addon had a feature to change the ambient color tho

it works

No idea, test it

is there support for the new shader addon called cascaded shadow mapping? ik it released literally yesterday but i'm kinda curious whether this would either work or it conflicts with the shader addon

Nothing I can do about that, sorry. Some addons essentially un-do the work-around this mod uses when setting up their lights. I physically can't stop them from doing that. "Advanced Light Entities" also has this issue (or at least it did last time I tested, which was a few years ago).

Doesnt work with jmod properly, when I use the flare/glowstick theres no light but when i put ambient light to 2 it works fix it so it will work with ambient light on 1

thx

That's a bit vague, but that can probably either be fixed by turning on the option to force mat_specular 0 for all players, or by turning on the option to force r_radiosity to 0 for all players.

My friends' stuff is glowing. is there any way to fix this? If anything, I'm the host

oh, I thought that was something that could be done in the Light/Environment editor, Not the Sky editor.

Set the sky name to "painted" and then use the sky editor that exists in vanilla gmod.

How come you can Blackout the Sky while I can't!?

The first video on the workshop page's a tutorial. I can't make it any simpler without taking control away from people.

make the mod easier to use cause idk what im doing

This mod Will Never Make Sense to me...

this is awesome, thank you so much

@Raptor Jesus I've added a workaround to let superAdmins edit this addon's cvars. I also ran into a few other issues that I hadn't detected before (and that for some reason no one has reported), because I've previously only been testing in p2p/singleplayer. I've fixed most of those, though the 2 options at the bottom of the menu (disableStaticSelfIllum & disableStaticAmbLight) currently still only work in singleplayer. I'll get around to fixing those too at some point, but I've updated the addon with the current changes in the meantime.

my issue is that i can't seem to change the skybox at any level of permission in this case.

can you make a permissions/access change so that this can be used by admins on dedicated servers? thank you, this addon works great besides this!

also it freezes my pc

mat specular 0 to 5 seconds, you may freeze """"""""""""temporaly"""""""""" when this happen, dude i had to restart my pc 2 times when i enabled that option, what it does

It should still be there. I haven't updated the addon recently, and I still have it on my end. Are you sure you have the addon enabled?

where did the light editor go its gone from the editors

oh

You need to set that yourself. Spawn a sky-editor from the entities tab of the spawn menu and configure it with that.

If that doesn't do anything, then set skyname to "painted" at the top of the light/environment editor menu. Whether or not you need to do that will depend on the map (construct and flatgrass already have an editable sky by default, but a lot of maps won't).

my sky dosent change to night theme :(

black girl magic

chic ken joc keh

The first video at the top is a tutorial. If you mean you don't know how to change the sky's colour: There's a built in editor-entity for that in the entities tab of the spawn menu.

How To Make Night Mode?

I dont know

Dreamed of a addon like this many years ago. Thank you for your work

Where do you find it

TheUltimateDemon are you proposing global illumination? If so, good luck to your computer.

I Would Have Imagined This Would Be Able To Change The Color of the Atmosphere lighting and all that.

ah i see

Do you mean the actual physical sun in the sky or the sunlight in the map? You can do the former with vanilla Gmod's Sun Editor, but I don't have any way of changing the colour of the actual light.

is there any way to add an option that lets you change sun color?

i've been looking for a mod like this for ever

WOW GREAT ADDON:st

does this work in rooms? or just outside
