Tutorial: Sky box and Basic sky tricks

[TERRORsphere]

I can't figure out how to make a place you can see the sky through  

Follow my tutorial video more carefully.

Alrighty then. I guess I was wrong then. Thanks for clearing that up for me, Cutty.

I think it's funny how you can report Moderators posts.

[TheBladeRoden]

You can report admin posts too. To whom they are reported however, I know not.

Yea, i tired...listened to the vid, watched it, BUT it failed. >_>

I think it has somethin to do with sizes.

Edit:dang it forte, I made this a long time ago,in a galaxy far far away..., look at the date sometimes mang!

Your tutorial is working great for me, but i have one question.

How do I raise/lower the skybox floor so it levels to the "actual" floor?

Do what I do and copy paste a skybox from another map.

Same way you do it with any other floors.

Oh boy... I know this is old... I know this is dead and gonna be hated for this but... This isn't much of a tutorial. Everything is sped up to save time, however he doesn't stop speeding time up and I to get to it multiple times. He doesn't really say much. I tried to figure out how to take down the walls so the skybox can show, he says little to nothing on it and basically this guy and the rest of the thread are toxic to anyone who didn't get it.

Bottomline... this isn't much help

But I already told you how to make a skybox.

Draw a sector outside of the map (apart from it) and give it the textures and stuff you want showing in horizons and skies. Then, place a Skybox Viewpoint object (located in Cameras and Interpolation) in the middle of your skybox and give it a Zheight of at least 8.

Which part of this did you not understand?

[BookofDobson]

I got that but the kicker is... how do I see it past the original walls of the main map

[Gummywormz]

You mean making the outside of the map seem infinite? Use Line_horizon (Action 9).

[Knux]

To elaborate, you need to use the F_SKY1 texture on the sector where you want to see the skybox. After that, just use that Line Horizon property on the walls of the sector using the F_SKY1 texture.

OK thanks a lot
