[SOLVED]MAPINFO doesn't affect the skybox (map is Troll Fortress by Fiend).

Recommended Posts

So, i need to change the sky on the map Troll Fortress, but no matter what i write in the MAPINFO, it always stays the same. I've checked the map in the doom builder and everything seems fine. Neither the other standard skies (sky1, sky3..) nor a custom sky work, it's always the sky2.

Eh, any ideas what might cause this? Yes, i've sent PM to Fiend some time ago, but he's not around i guess. --->FIEND IF YOU ARE READING THIS CHECK YO PRIVATE MESSAGES BRO!!!<---

Here's map's entry from the MAPINFO:

map map06 "Troll Fortress by Fiend"
{
next = "map07"
sky1 = "RSKY2", 0.0
music = "SOR2L6"
}

Edit: forgot to add that all other maps work fine.

Thanks man, i've found those linedefs and learned what they do. Does anyone know if it's possible to disable/override them without editing the map? 'Cause i wanted to avoid editing maps for this little compilation i've put together. But it's okay i guess, changing the sky even via map editing is acceptable, so i will not cry (hard) if there is no other way.

If it doesn't upset other maps in your compilation too much, add the RSKY2 & RSKY3 patches to your wad and swap their names over. That should give Troll Fortress the sky you want, then swap over references to RSKY2 & RSKY3 in MAPINFO for the other maps.

Yep, i just replaced the sky3 texture with RSKY2 and assigned it to all other RSKY2 maps in the MAPINFO. Other half uses sky1 anyway. Thanks.
