SKy textures.

Post by breakyaface »

Hey there, I've got a question for all the mappers. I am working on a map with a little village, but I need a sky texture during night like, african night but without the sea. Does anyone have seen or made one. With the l, r , f, b, u, d .tga files. I really like to get those. Plz help me.

Have you tried using the '[africanight]' texture in the game? because if you do, it won't show the sea... if that still isnt what you are looking for, press your 'textures > sky' and in the text field press 's'. There should be a texture called 'starfield'. see if that looks good.

Do you mean if you just have the 'Caulk' texture set as your skybox textures? Its not a good idea... The sky will be all blurry.

the 'caulk sky' texture did/does the same thing, it gave me a blurry sky.

caulk sky is just caulk. u put it around the inside of ur skybox for night maps. when its foggy and ur farplane is low, it mkea it look like ur leading up to something, rather than just gray void.
