Quake sky

[TimeOfDeath]

Does anyone know if the purple sky in Quake is available anywhere in wad form?

Well, zdctfmp2 uses it in level 11, but it's brownish there (and wasn't retouched well enough), because DOOM's palette is quite limited as far as violets and purples are concerned. To use something of those shades you'd need to change the palette or make your levels for an engine that can bypass the palette limitations (using true color graphics, for example).

Thanks, I didn't realize that map had the Quake sky. I guess it doesn't have to be purple, but maybe a skybox would be better than a normal sky? Any suggestions on making a cool Quake-looking sky? It's in hexen format and must be able to at least run on ZDaemon, so there won't be anything too fancy.

Quake didn't have skyboxes.

That's ok, just wondering what people would suggest to use for a Quake-like sky.
