ok ive throw all my other maps out that i was working, ive put them in another folder for another time.

Ive started on a new map and ive not saved it as antother name as yet, not untill i finish, ive just named it a simple name for now.

Proble im having is right now is directional problems, when i put in the Construction Prefab, i cant seem to get to the lower floors in not just that building but any other building i put in.. The buildings are dark and i need to put in lighting..

What keys, options do i use to go lower ground on the map, untill i find this out most building will be dark as hell..

- Delete the prefabs
- Follow some tutorials for creating your own basic rooms, buildings, structures
- Learn some terrain editing (modsonline / forums here are great)
- Get a real feel for building things yourself and how the editor behaves
- Plan a map out (As you have done previously) and try to make it from scratch.

Its far more rewarding, looks better and will mean that you actually have the 'skills' to tackle complex problems later on.

I didn't quite understand your above question btw.

M 8 dont get me wrong to but im about to give up with Radiant, fucking poxy shity software, 6 hours working on another map, all was saving ok, untill i got a leak, i fond out what it was deleted/removedthe leak, added more stuff on and saved it and what happened it didnt fucking update again, it's ealy pissing me of , i read bits on tutorials, and what ever i do it seemd to screw up. I think it sucks,i have like 6 maps ive started and not one of them will update after saving .. It stinks.

Everyone has to start somewhere, and where better to start than with mistakes

Create something yourself, nothing special, just make a small un-detailed building, may a set of stairs. Once you get the feel for mapping using brushes. Stop looking at the prefabs, I always felt that by using Infinity Wards stuff you end up comparing your skills against theirs, and well, comparing a beginner with a professional is never a good thing.

Forget textures, forget terrain for now also, just make a nice small building.

A place where people often begin is by building their own house/workplace, or something they see often.

Stop trying to compile everything, what you see in the editor is pretty much what you map will end up looking like, but better.
Look up the tutorials on the basics of mapping, as at the moment you are trying to hurdle a few necessities.

now what, what the F*uck is this error im getting..

Reflection Probe at 472.0 4780.56.0 ive looked there and there shit all there, so what going on.?

hehe, stay calm

There are a few things that may help.

Firstly, EntityList.
Click "Edit" then "Entity Info"
In that list, find "reflection_probe" and click the '+' icon. Now underneath the first "reflection_probe", you should see at least one more (could possibly be more).
Select one in that list and click "Select". It should now select that probe.

Secondly, "Go To Position"
Click "Misc" then "Go To Position"
Now enter the position "472.0 4780.0 56.0"
This should take you to the centre of the probe.

If you still cannot see the probe, check your filters.

Press 'F' to open the filters list. Now make sure everything is ticked.
Now, look for "relfection_probe" and untick it.
Now, at the bottom of the filters, click "Reverse Filter".
You should now see only reflection probes.

u won't achieve anything without patience! nothing will be done in some minutes especially in the beginning
and as drofder said: start with something small and add details and get used to create things with brushes

Dude the reason the software is shit is because everyone on the iw forums were bugging iw to release them. they should of let them develop it more and fix errors ex. the shader_bin error.

CLEAR!

Irony, sarcasm and humour. 3 things Americans do not understand

stereotypes, something British people never do

see, that was sarcastic and ironic because it used your format of response to mine in another rebuttal while taking the tone of the opposite of the truth. It can also be taken humorously due to the sarcasm. Disproven.

no, being able to spot it would be being able to spot it. Understanding is too perceive the meaning of said thing, to grasp the idea of or comprehend.

So what you're saying is I don't have a full understanding of all the things droffy listed...ok, whatever. At least I have a full understanding of how to use commas

pfff... bunch of geeks imo.
