Offcourse not, but you're making a wrong assumption here (along with many other mappers). It's not a black and white issue. It's entirely possible to even the lighting in such a way that a small brightness-differences between renderers is acceptable. Then everyone can enjoy the map regardless of what renderer they use. As I mentioned this before; I like to do this with a bit of zone-brightness, but there're other ways to accomplish this.

Okay, I will add zone lighting in my future maps (and in this one)

Most of your maps and this map are already well lit. I think zone-brightness of 2, 3 or 4 would make it slightly better, but it's already bright enough. More importantly, you should look at specific issues that become apparant when you test the map with the software-renderer. I already posted two of these issues and I easily found a third (see screenshot). It wouldn't surprise me if you can find some more.

Well, with the big torches he has a point...

This isn't even limited on Software Rendering. With the other drivers this place also looks illogically dark. Thanks for your input!

Keep it coming

Wait, wait, wait....

There will be NONE of this "constructive criticism" bullshit so don't even try it. This better evolve into a nasty argument over petty things or you all lose your UT membership cards. You know how things are done in this game so don't even try to have a positive discussion that ends in a better map and everyone happy. It doesn't happen that way and each of you knows it. Stop this getting along crap right now or I'm telling Shade.

Really, I don't get what and why you are telling this now...

@DarkED: It's nice to hear that you are satisfied with this map!

I am not sure, but it looks like he is only joking... "telling Shade".. I mean, our head admin is surely not a badass.

I supposed that, too, but that does not explain the why. What is the trigger of his behavior?

No idea, but I think he will tell you next time...

You got trolled ...and it was meant sarcastically...

Jack still didn't realize that actual properly put smiles (like a tongue in cheek) actually save lives.
