Dusk till Dawn Skyboxes - Kept you waiting, huh?

Here's 10 skyboxes from over the years that fit the Dusk till Dawn theme, along with their respective lighting settings for reference. Don't like the lighting settings provided? Feel free to change them to your needs!

Collects several skyboxes that have either already been released, lost to dead downloads, or went unreleased for too long - including skyboxes for the maps Slasher, Monster Bash, and Wildfire.

These are all eligible for use in the Dusk till Dawn contest, and any point from here on out.

Have fun!

when I tried running the skyboxes they didn't seem to work, the map just appeared as if it were leaking. I placed the files in a folder called 'skybox' inside my tf/custom folder as you stated in the readme.txt file

Hey, is there a chance I could use these for Open Fortress? With credit, of course!

It's fairly easy to install this as with any other custom content so I'm guessing you're having issues with putting in the skybox's names if you're already inputting sky names like this: (just in case)

Included was a readme.txt that included the correct naming of the maps to insert in this field listed as below:

Try seeing if you're putting in the skybox names incorrectly and if putting in these names fixes the issues.

If that does not be seem to fixing the issue, check then if the files are installed correctly and do a fresh reinstall of the files.

If that lastly does not work, my only hypothesis was sv_pure not allowing unpacked custom content from showing on your client.

It must be with the way I've been installing it, because I have checked the name, an where I've been typing it in, so I'm definitely doing something wrong. Thanks for the advice, I appreciate it : >

I've been trying to use sky_midnight_01 but I don't know where to put the skybox file. I tried putting it in the custom folder, but that didn't work so I don't know what to do at this point.

it goes in the exact file structure its presented, in custom

you drag the dusk-till-dawn_skyboxes folder into custom, so that its like, tf/custom/dusk-till-dawn_skyboxes/

so the final file path will be
tf/custom/dusk-till-dawn_skyboxes/materials/skybox/sky_midnight_01
