I finally finished the level for competition.
I wanted to open a bottle of champagne but ....
The LightMapping not work. The first report made a disaster. (see attached image). I have updated the file .fpe but after more than an hour of processing freezes the process.....and now??? (ok ok.....fpscr is in beta .... I know ... I know)

for the level of competition I used the entire map. : -) ...... I used many entities, trees, objects, buildings, really a lot. Is this the problem?

Forgive my english

The software I use? ... Autocad, sketchup, Spazio3D, pconplanner, Kerkythea, wings3d, paint.net, torque3d.

yes lightmapping requires a lot more memory (probably double) while running so it's likely just hitting the limit or even if not it will take ages with so many objects.
i'd advise skipping the lightmapping completely.

@Bisella



For us to see what you mean with the light Mapping it would be best if you showed the same image for Before and After.



Oops

Sorry I didn't realize it was the same picture with the trees scaled up, there is a fix for this.

The light mapper has its own memory so I doubt it is that which is causing the issue.

No other ideas at the moment though, might be a media issue as it looks like they are scaling up.
