I have a problem, i have a map that there is a broken pipe and repulsion gel is spewing out of it. But for some reason it wont paint on the floor, its splashing on the floor but it does not get painted on the floor. I dont know what to do :(

[SkwittGaming]

@GlitchMasterSonic at the top of the editor click map/paint on map and select yes

[TheCandSfilms]

please help! I was running my map, the gel works, im affected by it but it's invisible. I set yes to "paint in map" What do i do?

[SkwittGaming]

@TheCandSfilms you need to have lighting on your map for gel to show, follow my lighting tutorial

[SkwittGaming]

@48vinicius i made an update tutorial called Respawning Cubes, check the channel

[hazzmando]

@SkwittGaming Thanks :]

[z0mbiebanana989]

Sorry found out now you need to enable it to paint the room and you need lights

[z0mbiebanana989]

My paint don't land on the floor and when a cube gets covered in paint it don't bounce why is it doing that

[djracab25]

ok, so i think it might be a bug since its beta, but i did everything you did but when i compile it, it says that the prop is leaked. so i moved it and now it says the light and paint dropper is leaked. HELP PLEASE

@DJTV302 i know you've probably figured it out by now (seeing that your comment is 7 months old), but you need to tell Run Map to do RAD on Normal or Fast

I like your intro :D the music is funny

[supermario1298]

[supermario1298]
