Custom Skybox
2007-05-29, 10:29 AM #1
so i was doing a tutorial on custom skyboxes in JO.. followed it correctly and it didnt work.. i just get black squares... however.. the skylight i put in the shader does work.. so its just not loading the images.. so i thought i would use the yavin one from the game.. and just add a skylight to it... so i copied the yavin skybox code and pasted it again in the skies.shader file.. and added the skylight.. and still get black squares.. and its the exact same code as the old shader.. just with the added skylight.. which does work... ahh doesnt make any sense to me.. any ideas?

i even extracted the yavin textures and put them in the textures/skies directory just incase... still didnt work :/

oh.. here is the shader code...
Code:
textures/skies/yavin_light
{
	qer_editorimage	textures/skies/sky.tga
	q3map_surfacelight	60
	sun 1 1 1 300 75 80
	surfaceparm	sky
	surfaceparm	noimpact
	surfaceparm	nomarks
	surfaceparm	metalsteps
	notc
	q3map_nolightmap
	skyParms	textures/skies/yavin 512 -
}

Hey I had the same problem earlier. Here's the thread, if you read over it, you should be able to find what you need.

Do you remember using /sv_pure 0 before going to your map? (if this is MP)

yeah i got it working now... the sv_pure was one of the problems along with the way i was setting up the texture folders i believe
