i often sit down and see other tf2/csgo etc maps and i notice that they have some relay good detailed skyboxes that look awesome. for example on tf2 there are some maps where you can see the water on the deathpit and if you look far away you dont see a line crossing the water vs the skybox...
A warm twilight sky with a hint of a setting sun, made for mvm_teien.
Place the materials folder under tf/ or tf/download/, whichever your preference. The settings VMF provided goes in mapsrc - use this for all environmental lighting settings!
I'm currently editing a modified version of pl_barnblitz, but I'm getting tired of trying to understand the optimization problems.
The biggest issue I'm having is that the map appears to be rendering without any light_environment, but I think that has to do with the optimization issues, a leak...
so I love the idea of using a func_physbox and a phys_motor to create a spinning skybox, yet I cannot make it work. I have extensively poured over the example map Roundabout by Faux Rhinoceros, a well made map that works well on the same concept. Yet nothing I do can make my skybox spin. When I...
I am making a mvm map on a huge truck that is moving through a canyon. I want the skybox to move around the map. What would be the best way to make this happen. Please vote and give suggestions
hi i'm medli and i like to paint sometimes so i tried making a skybox for the first time
Not much to say about this-- I know it's far from perfect but if anyone has advice on how to make a better skybox in the future, it'd be highly appreciated. I've never made a seamless texture before, so...

Anyone got any ideas if this would be possible or if theres another way to...
Yesterday I ran into a problem regarding the 2dskybox and the lighting in my map.
The problem is that when i add a skybox to my map all of my light suddenly doesn't work (everything is black)
removing the skybox resolves this issue, but I want my map to have a skybox.
Note that I do not have...
Just a little thing i did out of boredom.
I recompiled a few standard props with smaller scale to fit into skyboxes.
Download contains a mini prop zoo map for reference.
All new models are in props_skybox folder.
Note: all security_fence models were skyboxified. 512 unit long skybox fence...
Here is a guide for people who want their skybox to be mathematically PERFECT.
I might just be making a redundant guide but it seemed to me like there aren't any specific guide dedicated for this. Please tell me if there is already.

I don't remember seeing this before, but I was compiling a test build of a map I was working-on, and I keep getting a "Sun" of sorts in the upper-South-West corner of the map?
I really do not want it there, because I am also trying to use a custom sky-box texture that has its own "Sun" (or...
