weird skybox thing

Post by shadowdemon »

ive been working further on my map, and i accidently changed something on my skybox. i didnt know what but i just rebuilt the skybox. now it appears my map is like 200KB bigger in size all of a sudden, and it gives an error while compiling that it cant load the PRT file. all looks fine, but when you go out the skybox you cant see the map anymore, and you see a grey texture. anyone know how to ix this?

btw i firstly applied caulk and then ctrl shift the skybox textures.

Just redo the skybox again. Delete all the brushes of the skybox. Create a huge box around your whole map. Use CSG hollow. Change the texture -- if its not already sky texture. Don't worry about caulk or overlapping brushes. The importent thing is that the box seals the map from the outside void.
