Yes I have a light in the map. Still doesn't work.

If you have gel in the map, and you have a light in the map (and mat_fullbright is set to 0) then gel should work.

Post your compile log.

You have a leak, which is why lights and gel don't work.

Is there any good way to find where it leaks?

Nice. Thx for the help

I have this problem some days ago and i found something interesting : When i worked with env_cubemap gel sticked perfectly to faces. So now when i want to enable paint on a wall i do a env_cubemap and select the face of the wall and it works perfect. I noticed too that maps without env_cubemap are fully bright and env_cubemap force maps to calculate light. I don't know if the problem come from there. But i'm pretty sure it will help some people.

This is not true at all. Lighting and cubemaps are completely separate topics. A map without lighting will be fullbright, regardless if there are cubemaps in the map or not. Likewise, a map (with or without lighting) will not have cubemaps until they are both placed and built using the "buildcubemaps" command.

Technically, a map without any env_cubemaps DOES have cubemaps, they are just the default ones, both on fullbright and lit maps. But yes for cubemaps that make sense what msleeper said is required.
