[SOLVED]

Hey all!

I'm building my first map but I'm having a problem with my skybox working. I get that "hall of mirrors" effect as if there were a huge leak but there is not.

Pasting the log into interlopers.net/errors gets me:

material "skybox/sky_outpost_01rt" not found

This is not a custom skybox. It is the one used in Snowycoast. I do not have problems playing Snowycoast normally.

I have tried verifying integrity of the game files but this did not fix it.

Thank you for your help!
