Hammer, Dynamic Lights not working

[Seby™]

So I decided to go to light_dynamic from normal lights thinking it would be a better choice, during the compile the console said "1 direct lights" and once I went ingame to test the lights were not working. The arms and weapons of the character were getting lit up for some reason, but the world was not. The game I'm using Hammer for is No More Room in Hell.

And this is my second map. Anyone know how to help me fix this or will I have to revert back to normal lights?

[Please]

Try this, Make a light_spot, and a light_dynamic, put them on the same spot and hight. Parent the one that is parentable to the other light. Make sure "Moving light" Flag is ticket. Test again. Light_dynamic is an invisible light source that changes over time. So you actually need to put another light close to it. for it to work i believe. May be wrong, but give it a shot.

You also got a texture error: material dev/dev_measurewall01b doesn't have a $bottommaterial
