I haven't been here in a while because I forgot this place existed, but I'm here again. Anyways, there's this problem I'm having in ShockEd where the lighting options won't turn off fullbright, and when I go into game mode, it's all fullbright, even though I didn't make any lighting objects. Is this some default thing I need to turn off or what?

sanity check - using the Shocked build that can be installed by the tool, right?

Yes. Latest version of SS2Tool.

View->Toggle Lighting toggles lighting, never had an issue with that (iirc, pre-NewDark commands to toggle it are deprecated and shouldn't be used).
what seems to be the problem exactly? note that I only work with existing maps, never tried to create one from scratch (if that's what you are doing).
screenshots maybe?

This might be the issue. I haven't saved the thing anywhere. But where does one save System Shock 2 WIP fan missions anyway?

ideally, you would work on a fan mission in the same manner as you play a fan mission - set up the resources under FMs\MyFM, and create a shortcut to the editor exe adding the -fm parameter, and use FMsel to launch the editor loading the resources of that FM.

Every time I open ShockEd for the first time and load a mission, the lighting is always screwed up. I have to toggle lighting once and then again to fix any anomalies. After that I don't need to touch lighting until I close ShockEd.

Do you have hardware rendering enabled?

Not sure about Attic. I don't really know how to toggle it myself. My generic understanding of software vs hardware rendering wouldn't normally rouse suspicion to change it, as I expect both to work, merely with a difference CPU load that I don't care about.

you definitely want hw rendering enabled, see editor_disable_gdi and edit_screen_depth 32 in Dromed.cfg (SS2 folder).

but once you get to the later stages of the game, and choose your psi disciplines right, you can walk around laughing while everything around you just whimpers and dies.
