Skybox - Only Color Showing - Plazmater - 10-20-2013

So , as title says , i have little problem.
i copied AAMFP Texture assets and named it Texture2 and place it into Redist file.
I works and i can find in editor those nice night skyboxes from AAMFP but problem start here.
When i choose what skybox i want and set it to active , in test it doesnt work only color is visible (color what can you choose under Active section.
In level editor it is nicely visible but in game when i test my custom story there is only that color and no skybox even when it is active:

I have tried to look everywhere for this problem , and i couldnĀ“t.
I want this problem to be solved because i have this problem so long that it is annoying me.

Make a folder in your CS called "envmap" and place your skybox in their.

Go back into the Level Editor and link the new path to the "envmap>Texture2" and see if it fixes your problem.

If you applied the update, use LevelEditor131016.exe

As Amn says, it seems you're using an old and broken version of the updated editor. There's a new version you can use that will properly save the skybox texture.

First thing to try is to add the textures2 folder to the resources.cfg file if you haven't already.

Next if that doesn't solve anything, could you open the .map file in notepad and Ctrl-F search for "SkyBoxTexture" (without quotes)? Can you find anything?

If none of this works, try to make a very simple map. Just a plane, PlayerStart area and a skybox, open it in the game and make sure it doesn't work, then upload it somewhere (just the .map file should be enough) and send me a link by pm and I'll have a look.
