ohmtal Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 (edited) As i didn't find any information about how to modify the images to use with the cubemap data here are some hopefully useful information The images have to be rotated and added to CubemapData like this: sky.dml Direction CubeFace-ID Rotation pos_x RIGHT 0 270 neg_z BACK 2 180 neg_x LEFT 1 90 pos_z FRONT 3 neg_y UP 4 270 pos_y DOWN 5 270 cloud1 cloud2 cloud3 new CubemapData(greenFanCubemap) { cubeFace[0] = "./pos_x.png"; cubeFace[1] = "./neg_x.png"; cubeFace[2] = "./neg_z.png"; cubeFace[3] = "./pos_z.png"; cubeFace[4] = "./neg_y.png"; cubeFace[5] = "./pos_y.png"; }; I should write a little tool which does the rotation for me.

Steve_Yorkshire Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Nice! The amount of trouble I've had getting the images the correct way around ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fLUnKnhaXYU Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Thank you ohmtal , Id like to see something like the rotation chart in the documentation and the add-on is a great idea . but also , I try to recall an issue using skybox images not specifically meant for T3D and the different orientations and image arrangements one might encounter . do you know yet how the functions would handle that . maybe its less confusing than I feel it might be . seems I scarfed a few skyboxes from freeGameArt dot something . thx again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohmtal Posted Sunday at 10:26 PM Author Share Posted Sunday at 10:26 PM Thank you for replies. @Steve_Yorkshire me too @fLUnKnhaXYU Sky box can't be use with ScatterSky and is bad for day/night since it does not change the color. It does not matter if the meant for T3D as long as it is a supported format for T3D (like png) and they should have all equal resolution - matters in OpenGL / Linux when I remember right. In the Tool you can also manually load the textures rotate and export them . I added some more views to see the match better. The Screenshot was old it looks like: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohmtal Posted Monday at 09:38 PM Author Share Posted Monday at 09:38 PM (edited) @fLUnKnhaXYU just use the link above - beside the source i also packed the windows 64 bit exe.
