Skyboxes - OriginalUsername - 02-18-2013

Hey there,

I'm working on a custom story named "Moghrub's tale". You'll have to go outside at some time in this CS so I'll need a skybox. I've looked everywhere for a download but I can't find it. Could someone link me a list of skyboxes?

If you can't find a skybox, using fog will remove the need of a skybox. Even if you do have a skybox, fog can be very creepy :p

I'm serious. Sorry if you think I'm stupid.

And I prefer some stars over a fog.. I'll look if I can make one myself.

Look in Development Resources for longer than 5 seconds. Use one from existing custom stories/amnesia mods etc.

Thank you.

When you dont like any of them, you could also do obe by yourself. I dont know how it exactly works, but i dont think it is that hard to find out. When you are looking for textures, you can visit cgskies.com and cgtextures.com i guess you can at least get some inspiration there Smile

Okay, I got an skybox (Of course) But now it won't stick. Every time I set one active and restart the editor, it's gone. Am I missing something?

Add your custom story directory into the redist resources.cfg

<Directory Path="/custom_stories" AddSubDirs="true" />

I had it in a folder which had an directory path. But I'll try this

EDIT: It's an FC now. Didn't mention that

Fixed it trough this:

SetSkyBoxTexture("StarrySky.dds");

Thanks anyway!
