happening to me also

Didn't see this until now, sorry. The skybox, I don't know about why that would be missing. It is a Counter-Strike: Source skybox, but it should be included in the addon. If you have CSS, is it mounted or unmounted from the game?

As for the lighting, the map only has HDR lighting to save on download size (it would add probably around 100 Mb). I know how it is to not have a super fast connection or a ton of disk space and made this decision because it seemed like a worthwhile tradeoff. If you hate HDR then you can disable bloom and set the exposure minimum and maximum to 1, but that's not how the map is supposed to look anyway.

I have CSS but don't have it installed. I also forgot to mention that it worked fine previously.

Thanks for the reply!

And thanks for your patience!

Ok, I unmounted everything except Half-Life 2, made sure the skybox is not in my garrysmod/materials/skybox folder (it was so I removed it). Skybox is still showing up in the game, when I use the whereis console command gmod says it's coming from the GMA file.

Going to try updating the map with the skybox both in the GMA and packed into the bsp. If that doesn't fix it I don't know what will.

Did you update it already? I tried it now and after turning HDR off and on it works fine! Also idk if that's just for me only but you forgot to set the thumbnail in gmod[i.imgur.com]. Anyways thanks for the help

Oh damn, you commented that before I changed anything. Yeah I guess that did it then, no idea unless there is some kind of caching going on. Glad the map looks right for you now. Also the icon should be fixed as you mentioned, for some reason I had it named as icon.png rather than gm_cyan_dreampools.png

how to tun off hdr?

how to tun off hdr?

I uploaded the map with only HDR lighting, because with both it made the download size huge.
BUT, you can get rid of most of the HDR effects just with console commands:
Edit: I considered many times putting something in the map that lets you do this without console commands before you enter the map proper via teleporter, but in the end I decided it would be too immersion-breaking compared to just dumping the player at one of the spawnpoints. The map is supposed to feel like an incomprehensible labyrinth of tiled pools that were created by something we can't comprehend and is doing a poor job of simulating the environments that occupy or once occupied the collective unconscious, and even having you spawn into something saying "HDR on|HDR off" takes away from that.
