generating shadows in WEU

ok. i had finished a custom map a while back (or so i thought) and completed generating the shadows. a few months later, i decided that i didnt like the finished look of it. so i made MANY changes. but the shadows are still there from the last time i generated them.

now, when i try to generate shadows and save, WEU locks up and i ultimately have to shut down my comp.

heres the question: is there a way to get rid of all the shadows alltogether? or will i have to scrap the idea of regenerating them? if thats the case i might as well start over because it looks completely ridiculous with random shadows all over the place.

thanks in advance.

Jace.

I suggest just sracp them or check your trigger in the trigger and scripts forum cause if you do use an custom trigger thats the problem and check it.

well, there are no triggers (except the default ones) so that wouldnt be the cause.

If the terrain is very complex or there are many doodads it may take up to some minutes. Try to wait more time.
