i know im stupid, but how do i set it to one of these...with me its always the standard sky....

[Bolle]

in the texture browse option filter "sky" and select the plain blue texture with sky wrote on it, and then create the brush were you want the sky to be.

then go to your map options, and you type the sky name in there

aaah i see it ... TNX alot

[StumpyNL]

Well... I've trief what you recommended the other guy, but I can't do it!

Can you please tell me what to do?

thanks

To get the sky texture, open the texture browser and set the filter to "tools skybox"- that should show you just one blue texture. Use that texture where you want to see sky.

Then go into Map Properties (in the Edit menu, IIRC) and set the skybox name to whichever skybox you want to use.

[StumpyNL]

YES! It is working! Thanks mate =)

Does any of the skyboxes have a ground?
If not, any ideas?
(for a map where a far away ground is needed)
Thanks.

[Ophidian]

Sounds like you'll have to make a 3dskybox to do that.
