custom sky boxes

[indy]

can we not use custom sky textures yet?

i made some custom textures for my sky box, specified the name of them in the map properties as... sky_toon_sky

basic shader used ...

"lightmappedGeneric"
{
"$baseTexture" "sky/sky_toon_skybk"
}

well im wondering if the textures need to be in a env type folder for them to be read? but i cant find one....

right now they are in the materials/sky folder and they show up fine in the editor.
my skybox is set up properly, but for some reason in aint finding the textures.

is there maybe a custom shader needed for them to render?

any info would be helpful =]

ok well i fixed it some what...

the sky textures need to be placed in /materials/skybox

i had /materials/sky so it didnt work.

now that i got it to show up... it renders all glitched out.

im thinking maybe the sky textures need a special shader or texture size?

again if anyone has any info let me know!

well with some tinkering ive figured it out "no thanks to any of you"!

the sky textures must be in your /materials/skybox folder.
also the shader must be an "unlit generic ambient".

ill create a video tutorial to help anyone else whos having this problem.

I have no idea what the heck your talking about, nor do I ever mod, but I guess it would be just plain nice to post,
So, good job, keep up the good work
