I dont really know what else there is to explain, i goto materials add the wad, and no textures load, I've tried different wad files and nothing.
and the thing is it worked the first time i booted trenchbroom, just add the wad, not much else to it, and it worked but when i exited and started again it just will not load wad files anymore
is there some reg files i can delete?

To clarify, youre attempting to load textures for Quake 2? Quake2 doesnt use wads so youre confusing the issue a bit.

I set Q2 up and got it to work. Closed and restarted TB, still works. Did you perhaps make changes to the quake2.cfg in your trenchbroom/games folder?

No just a quake 1 map using the q2tex00.wad, Ive used it before
only log message i get is
Could not load palette file 'gfx\palette.lmp': File not found: 'gfx\palette.lmp'

providing that error message wouldve been a massive help :D
you must have done some changes in your quake/id1/gfx directory that got rid of the palette.

I'm making my first map in Trenchbroom. I set a light key in worldspawn just so I could see perfectly while testing some stuff. However, I now can't figure out how to return to default blackness. I tried both removing the light key from worldspawn and setting it to 0 but either way the world is still bright despite there being zero lights. Can I have some help with this?

Are you running light.exe on your bsp? If not it will always be fullbright.

Yep, I'm using light.exe. And have tried a few different exe's but nothing is changing.
No Light Entities --> Fullbright Map

If your map has no light entities in it, the map will be fullbright. As soon as you add even one light entity, all the non-illuminated areas will become dark.

Thanks! I had a feeling it would be something stupidly simple / obvious...

Is there a way to make one specific room in a map look fullbright other than stuffing it with maxed out lights? I had this idea of making a funny "noob mapper" secret with blocky offgrid architecture and texture misalignments aplenty...
