| Post subject: | Skybox question |
I just wanted to know if there was a way where skyboxes can automatically load on certain maps when you switch to them. I tried making res files but that didn't work. right now I just have "loadsky dmcw" on my autoexec, but I want to make it so that I can load certain skies on maps without manually doing it. Any help would be much appreciated.

To the best of my knowledge, there isn't a way to do that. |

Several other engines support the "sky" key in map worldspawn, which will then load the specified skybox at loadtime. |

Yes, Yellow requested "map-named" skybox loading, but after adding r_skyscroll i just got real lazy with skys  IMHO r_skyscroll looks more real than some 16bit png image of the sky that looks like the wallpaper of my dentists waiting room

Well, I'll have thursday off to tinker with the code some. My brain only has 256kb so the other 261 feature requests got lost in the buffer overload.

ok Done. I'll release an update soon! New cvar: R_MAPNAME_SKYBOX (0 | 1) Setting this value to 1 will tell the client to use the MAPNAME as the variable for r_skybox. your skybox files need to include the sufix "rt", "bk", "lf", "ft", "up", "dn" for each map u wish to "force" a skybox for example: To force a skybox for map DM3... c:\quake\qrack\textures\env\dm3rt.png c:\quake\qrack\textures\env\dm3bk.png c:\quake\qrack\textures\env\dm3lf.png c:\quake\qrack\textures\env\dm3ft.png c:\quake\qrack\textures\env\dm3up.png c:\quake\qrack\textures\env\dm3dn.png also setting r_skybox "mysky" in your cfg will set the initial skybox As u go from map to map, if you dont have skybox images for a particular map it uses your default value, or the last loaded skybox..
