Lights.rad/Half-Life 2

The hl2 folder included in most Source 2013 Multiplayer game installations (as well as a few other games) does not include the lights.rad file included in Half-Life 2's hl2 directory. While this is not a problem for most games, as they include their own lights.rad, some titles such as Half-Life 2: Deathmatch and Source SDK Base 2013 - Multiplayer do not, which can result in unexpected results in some circumstances. The vanilla Half-Life 2 radfile is provided below for reference.

lights.rad

This is a RAD file, that can be used to manipulate the way QRAD, HLRAD, and VRAD handle given brush textures when compiling static lighting. In Source, this can be also used to forcing props to cast texture shadows.
To add a RAD file to the map editor, copy the following text into a text editor such as Windows Notepad, Notepad++ or Visual Studio Code, and save it with "save as type" being "all files" and .rad appended to the file name.

Tip:Select the beginning of the line (usually the "//" comment) by clicking it, scroll down then hold ⇧ Shift, and click at the end of the line to select all.
