I figure it's more than possible. Write a DarkPlaces mod to place realtime lights, then just export their positions and various values to a text file, parse it, and chuck it into RAD, and you have your baked lightmaps. Would make development a lot easier..

Darkplaces already has a lights editor built in. It won't edit static lighting though, only realtime lighting. Still, you can write a converter to translate an rtlights file created inside DP and append it onto a map file. _________________ What's a signature?

Perfect. How do you use the light editor in DarkPlaces? I'll write the converter.

People have made their own editors too, using CSQC. _________________ Look out for Twigboy
