Hi everyone, I'm having this weird lighting bug where flat brush faces are being lit differently under the same light_environment. By playing around with Hammer++'s texture UV settings I've found out that faces are lit evenly if their UV coordinates are all kept the same. However, I'm not interested in having the same UVs for every face, as I want to have rotated textures. Additionally, if I set mat_bumpmap in Garry's Mod's console to 0, the issue is resolved, but then my map looks bleached. Any help is much appreciated.
if your map has cubemaps and that road texture is like reflective, you gotta (in the cubemap settings) select all the road faces. so that all the road faces are attached to one cubemap. i wanna elaborate further but i gtg rn so i hope this helps 👍
