2D Skybox Help

[Fraz]

I've been working on my 2D Skybox however it has been stretching an ungodly amount when loaded ingame.

I so far have tried 2 different vmts. One on a tutorial, one copying from valve's skybox texture that I edited.

Screenshot of my Sky, it was exactly the same with both vmts

It should look like:

The first vmt I used was from here

"UnlitGeneric"
{
"$basetexture" "skybox/sky_calore_01lf"
"$nofog" 1
"$ignorez" 1
}

The second I copied off of Valves sky_night_01lf vmt, still stretched.

"UnlitGeneric"
{
"$basetexture" "skybox/sky_calore_01lf"
"$nofog" 1
"$ignorez" 1
"$basetexture" "skybox/sky_calore_01lf"
"$basetexturetransform" "center 0 0 scale 1 2 rotate 0 translate 0 0"
"%keywords" "tf"
}

Now the VDC says a third vmt, that I haven't tried yet, but will soon.

"sky"
{

"$hdrcompressedTexture" "skybox/<filename>"
"$nofog" "1"
"$ignorez" "1"
"$basetexture" "skybox/<filename>"
}

Now I am wondering if I should "merge" all the vmts into:

"sky"
{

"$hdrcompressedTexture" "skybox/<filename>"
"$nofog" "1"
"$ignorez" "1"
"$basetexture" "skybox/<filename>"
"$basetexturetransform" "center 0 0 scale 1 2 rotate 0 translate 0 0"
"%keywords" "tf"
}

Now, I was also thinking it could be a problem with my TGAs but that will be the last thing checked. If anyone has any ideas, or can see any problems, or knows a vmt that should work, and has worked in the past for them. Any help is appreciated.

Furnace creek sky:

"sky"
{
	
	"*hdrbasetexture" "skybox/sky_furnace_01lf"	
	"*nofog" "1"
	"*ignorez" "1"
	"*basetexture" "skybox/sky_furnace_01lf"
	"*basetexturetransform" "center 0 0 scale 1 2 rotate 0 translate 0 0"
	"%keywords" "tf"
}

Salt creek sky:

"sky"
{
	
	"*hdrbasetexture" "skybox/sky_salt_01lf"	
	"*nofog" "1"
	"*ignorez" "1"
	"*basetexture" "skybox/sky_salt_01lf"
	"*basetexturetransform" "center 0 0 scale 1 2 rotate 0 translate 0 0"
	"%keywords" "tf"
}

Strata sky:

"sky"
{
	
	"*hdrbasetexture" "skybox/sky_strata_01lf"	
	"*nofog" "1"
	"*ignorez" "1"
	"*basetexture" "skybox/sky_strata_01lf"
	"*basetexturetransform" "center 0 0 scale 1 2 rotate 0 translate 0 0"
	"%keywords" "tf"
}

They're all rectangular images and they all work just fine.

(replace * with $.. I hate this forum's removal of $ words)
