I think you have to use the same skybox for the whole game.
If I am wrong someone else will let us both know.

Nope, if you manage to get things calling right, and you edit the stuff right... I think you can anyways... technically, anyways...


you need a new FPI for each level

in the setup ini it says you can do this

global = languagebank\english\gamebank\mygame\setuplevel.fpi
levelfpm1 =
levelfpi1 = languagebank\english\gamebank\mygame\loadingpage.fpi

setuplevel will have the sky command in it, you want that in loading page. You need to have a new loading page for each level, and I am not certain that the levelfpi's inc if you have multiple levels, but if they don't you have to edit it to make it so. Of course if Loading Page calls the entity version of Scripting, you are screwed. But I don't think it does, test it.

yeah, and you need an edited ini to load that fpi.
The fact is that it should work, the question is if there is some lee code preventing it.

You open up the setuplevel.fpi with FPI maker or Notebook and change the skybank.

I know that but doesnt that change it for the whole game. Mosillivo was explaining how to have a different skybox in each level.

This is what i tried.


You might have to zoom in to see the pic.

If you want to change the skybox for each level Marravano will have to help you with that.

yeah... hopefully he does... scratches head...

But appearantly I was wrong... Code will have to be moved to allow reload of sky.


Or mabey FPSC is giving me a hard time.. I just removed that code and It STILL is crashing on me...

If the sky box is just a box, then why can't you make slightly smaller boxes inside each other?

Level one would be the biggest box with all the others inside it invisible.
Each level would then change the next box inside from its invisible texture to its skyscape texture.



Nevermind, it probably won't work either, and if it did it would slow things down a bit.
