Question  Global ambient lighting

Hi, just a quick question, I haven't been able to find an answer anywhere else. How do I set global ambient lighting, like in the Entrance Hall level? Because at the moment everything that I haven't lit with torches is pitch black, but I want you to be able to slightly see.
Any help would be appreciated!

RE: Global ambient lighting

There is no ambient light in the HPL engine, the closest you can come is using a box light.

RE: Global ambient lighting

They're probably the same thing. Just make a box light and set it around the entire map. Then you can change how bright it is by changing the diffuse color. The blacker it is, the darker it will be. Make R G and B all the same value for white/black and not color.
