cs2 Workshop tools

[GroSSoMineTToFr @NoOoB]

Hello,

I would like to contact you directly for help with cs2.

Unfortunately, I have a graphics card that does not support vrad 2 (NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660ti).

I really need help to be able to compile my Map created with the "Cs2 Workshop Tools" software in rapid compilation I have almost the entire Map in black, and in complete compilation I absolutely cannot compile my map.

I have an error message saying that my graphics card does not support vrad 2.

I would like you to find a solution so that I can compile my Map and make it clear without large gray areas.

I am counting on you and your expertise in cartography.

Thank you in advance for your answer.

Cordially GroSSoMineTToFr

Ive got 1660s and cant compile final compilation cuz of lack of ray tracing module. I now this is insane valve shoudlve give us a choice to disable RT or at least opportunity to compile RT without inner module even if it's slow.
But what I compiled with some custom settings to avoid RT stuff didnt turned black or smthing, just very bad lightning and foggy vision idk why, still very bad result for me but smthing.
Play with tick options in custom compile maybe it'll make any difference. Or following new valve policy - go and get RTX or another RT card.
Also Ive found this solution on internet, didnt try yet https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1OCsTeHGoI

just found another solution:
In compiling window in hammer, you'll have a tab custom settings that has a long command line for compiling the map
copy that, add -lightmapcpu there and run it in command line window (cmd.exe)
U have to click on final compile before clicking custom to transfer settings.
-outroot command stands for output folder I guess, cant check cuz compiling seems to last forever.

Stopped the proccess cuz its unbearably slow or mb stuck, and now I ve trying to remove -html from arguments.
Anyway find Source2ZE discord and ask them or find smthing I hope ull get it work.

hello ,

this technique no longer works it causes crash hammer.

I heard that you can compile a map by command prompt with normal light and without vrad, how to do it please??

cordially

U cant compile normal light without vrad as Ive said -lightmapcpu force this to compile on cpu. It took 2 hours for me to compile but I did it

about cmd line read above

After this update 10/05/2024, HAMMER broke and I can no longer compile maps without having to use the CPU GPU RAYTRACING. Rack -lightmapcpu no longer works.

[GroSSoMineTToFr @NoOoB]

I found a solution, it's not a luxury, but it works very well, I was able to compile my map without RTX GPU

The solution is available on the Source Engine discord
