Worldedit freezing after having generated all lights is somewhat common.
It doesnt effect the lightmap as it is saved properly, never figured the reason out for the freeze.

[Anju]

It's something common with the WorldEdit. Nothing new. Just get use to it.

>.> every time I use worldedit I always get freeze.(There is no way to solve it?) Lol Im gonna explore this shit! by the way thanks.

[HellSniper]

Worldedit will generate the lightmap, the progress bar will complete and id say 7 times out of 10 it would freeze after its done generating.
Where it is safe to just kill worldedit through the task manager or any other process manager you may use.
You can just check if the lightmap was generated successfully by opening the map again and see if worldedit displays the lightmap.
Alternatively you can look at the bitmap that worldedit saves/dumps aswell, or even do some minor adjustments and then reimporting the bitmap into the lm file. (not via worldedit, but with any hex editor or that one tool one person on ragezone wrote once after i brought lightmap bitmap editing up).

Sir how to put some light? can you teach me please?

[HellSniper]

You add a omni light, change the values and tick the shadows box if you want the light to cast shadows instead of only illuminating the scene.

[Olrac]

How do I add omni light sir? Should I just encode it to rs.xml? I dont know where the exact position to put it?

<POSITION>0.00000000 0.00000000 0.00000000</POSITION>
            <COLOR>0.0000000 0.00000000 0.0000000</COLOR>
            <INTENSITY>0.0000000</INTENSITY> 

This code came from castle.I just stole.

        <LIGHT name="Omni_torch_a 30">
            <POSITION>2975.3471680 1159.3345947 -208.9785156</POSITION>
            <COLOR>1.0000000 0.5725490 0.3372549</COLOR>
            <INTENSITY>1.0000000</INTENSITY>
            <ATTENUATIONSTART>200.0000000</ATTENUATIONSTART>
            <ATTENUATIONEND>500.0000000</ATTENUATIONEND>
            <CASTSHADOW/>
        </LIGHT>

@3ds max create tab -> lights -> standart -> omni.

[Olrac]

@3ds max create tab -> lights -> standart -> omni.

How do you do that? put that light? same light(Shape) on GTKradiant.
How do I put that Sir?

3Dmax create light>standard>omni? I dont get it sir.

Sir I made it :D thanks

[HellSniper]

Unless you edit the gzmap source, radiant wont write the light information into the xml.
Youd also have to adjust other values like range and if the light casts shadows or not.
