Could really use help with my Skybox-Problem.

[Lezuum]

Hi there.

I could really use your help, please.

 

Been working on this mappack since 2020 and these are my first attempts at mapping, so I apologize in advance if I am not able to fix it at once.

 

When I start the maps independently, I have zero issues and the skybox is displayed accordingly (default Skybox F_Sky1).

But as soon as I add these maps into the mega/miniwad the sky-texture disappears and the sky looks like this:

 

(I didn't add a custom skybox.)

Are you using a MAPINFO or UMAPINFO of some kind? I believe you need to specify what sky you're using in that.

Make a map info file in the base of your wad or pk3 directory. Make a map definition for each of your maps like so,

 

Map [Your Map Name Here] ["Nice name for your map"]

{

     Sky1 = ["Your sky name here"]

}

 

Type your info in, minus the brackets. You will need the quotes for your map nice name and your sky name, they need to be a string. Also take a look at this page from the wiki,

if you are trying to make a quake style skybox for GZDoom take a look here,
