I can't get the skybox to change between the first and second level.

Here's the script I'm using in setuplevel.fpi:

; Setup Level Stats
; :state=0:sky=skybank\ww2\Gas
:state=0,levelequal=1:sky=skybank\scifi\Mar
:state=0,levelequal=2:sky=skybank\scifi\Neo
:state=0:music=audiobank\music\generic\main.wav,musicvolume=50,soundscale=25
:state=0:fog=0,fogred=0,foggreen=0,fogblue=0
:state=0:ambience=25,ambiencered=255,ambiencegreen=255,ambienceblue=255

I got the idea from another post, but it still loads the Mars skybox for the second level.

Everytime I think I know what I'm doing with these scripts...

Oh, and I've also copied the Neo skybox to the .exe skybank folder after the game was built as it didn't seem to include that.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Didn't know "levelequal" was a command. I may be out of the loop.

In any case, the way I usually went about this was to change the skybox in the "loading" scripts for each level. Basically have the skybox you want for each level changed in that level's loading script.


The one and only,

I could hardly contain my excitement once I got this working!

So it has to be done using the loading.fpi per level, who would have thought!

Anyway, thanks for the help, one thing I did notice though is it only brought the default ww2\Gas skybox in when I built the game, but simply copying the skyboxes I needed into the built game skybank folder got it working.

Thanks loads.

Jack Attack - correct.
I have a build using 18lvls, with a variety of skyboxes.
Glad to know you have it working.
