DDS skbox help...
Hi guys i posted this in help but had a feeling it would get ignored... so...
Ok, this is probablie just me... but i cant see the skybox in my map! I know its loading the skybox due to a lack of clouds and the fact its reflected onto the sea (that is to say the skybox is reflected in teh water), however when you look up everything is purple (due to purple fog) or blue (when i removed the fog tag and i assume it defalted to blue fog) and I cant see the sky I made. However i have seen grabs of it working fine and danndy on others maps, so a little help would be most appreciated. Have I missed a tag or somthing?
What the hell Have I done rong??

Just thought I'd explane what I thinks wrong...
The skybox definatly loads into the game, because it is REFELECTED in teh water.
But the fog effect seems to blot out the actully sky box itself, as if the sky box is to far away to be seen.
Surly the fog should fad out top the sky box, not to a set colour, and then use teh set colour if your facing teh ground.

Thats interesting because fog works normally for me with a skybox and I would guess for zwzsg as well.aGorm wrote:Just thought I'd explane what I thinks wrong...

:: A little phlosophy ::
If you know alot about computers you will 1) get asked to fix less knowedgable peoples simple computer problems and told "woo, how'd you fix that in 5 mins?"
2) however because you can fix these problems so fast your computer gets spitfull and give you a problem that
a) no one else has ever had ever
b) a problem that will cost next months wages to solve
c) both of the above
This is a typical case a), untill someone say's its a problem with your graphics card, and then its a type c)
