Sky not changing

Post by Jdg50 »

Okay, so copied over all the Files from the assets folder to my World1 folder. (I changed the sky from Yavin to endor)
I renamed the Endor.sky file to Jdg.sky and it doesn't change ingame.

(I'm using fierfek's tut)
I'm probably doing something wrong and I feel like a noob.

Then you're either missing a file (might be the texture of the sky) or the dome model you are using doesn't fit with the texture. Are you sure you copied all the files you needed?

No, you don't.

Open up your new sky file and look at everything you need ex: textures and their .OPTION files. make sure that you have the .msh for you're dome model as well.
Then it will work, unless you have messed with you're .wld file...

I'll have to look...... Crud. I want to change it. Maybe I'll try out a different sky and see if the endor sky is the problem.

Actually, this may sound wierd, but, isn't BF2 case sensitive?
If so, rename Jdg.sky to JDG.sky

Or did you just not bother to captalize it in your post?

Try removing your old.sky file, and corresponding yavin sky msh's, and tga's. You could also copy over end1.fx, and end1.LGT from stock Endor renaming them JDG.LGT and JDG.fx. It might improve things. Do a manual clean in _BUILD/Worlds/JDG and then munge. Worth a try.

Interesting...... After removing the yavin Files, adding the two other files, and then munging, the sky is still black, but there seems to be a large sunlike thing in the sky, along with smoke/fog like stuff around.
