ok

How do i spawn it in?

@Herr Doktor - Any chance of a fix/update to these? All my favorite Skyboxes are made by you and some of the updates have made them act a bit funny.

Herr Doktor [author] 23 May @ 7:06pm

Create a skybox or add this skybox to your world? You just sub to it and add it to your game in the mods section assuming you don't have any other skybox mods already. You can only use one at a time.

How do i create the skybox?

Sir Spoony 17 Jun, 2024 @ 7:21am

Problem is its X to my Y when playing scenarios and classic starting modes...

Azil 8 Jun, 2024 @ 12:53am

Herr Doktor, did you ever update this to remove the second sun?

xXPotatoGODXx 3 Jun, 2023 @ 8:21pm

thank you that'd be super appreciated

Herr Doktor [author] 3 Jun, 2023 @ 2:40am

Maybe? I'm gonna get the sun in game aligned as best I can so it matches the skybox sun, and then I'll hide the in game sun so you don't see it at all.

xXPotatoGODXx 2 Jun, 2023 @ 4:56pm

is there a mod that removes the vanilla sun? for some reason the skybox's sun and the normal one are both present and not even at the same angles so i cant just slide it into place and turn off day cycle

Lokiawa 1 Jun, 2023 @ 3:38pm

Lovely. Now I have a dedicated world using this, just so that I won't have to constantly rotate the artificial sun to where I want it.

Rakorun 1 Jun, 2023 @ 2:41am

@Herr Doktor Love you man thank you so much <3

Herr Doktor [author] 31 May, 2023 @ 7:18pm

@Rakorun Here ya go. https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2635843202

Rakorun 31 May, 2023 @ 11:50am

now we only need a global downforce to simulate a planets gravity

Shrekalekalakes 29 Apr, 2023 @ 4:10pm

Finally!!!

VivaVii 31 Mar, 2023 @ 10:51am

can you make a SE plugin version of this skybox?

Herr Doktor [author] 26 Mar, 2023 @ 1:33pm

If you're on a planet there is never going to be a correct angle. I lined the skybox up so it matches ingame XYZ directions.

Skorpion 26 Mar, 2023 @ 8:44am

in our world the skybox have the wrong angle

Stud Thompson 18 Mar, 2023 @ 6:25pm

I need to remember what I did to provide global atmosphere to the world but it was using a planet at a very very distant point in the world with 0 falloff for atmosphere and gravity(before I knew of the global gravity mod)

Herr Doktor [author] 18 Mar, 2023 @ 5:07pm

It’s just a skybox. It’ll look like this in space or on planet. It’s odd with planets though because the orientation will be off.

Astiro 18 Mar, 2023 @ 2:58pm

Is this atmospheric only? Or space as well.

Herr Doktor [author] 17 Mar, 2023 @ 10:53am

Well that’s just perspective. If you go to another part of the planet it’ll look like it’s correct. Nothing to fix there.

CrimsonKNight_05 17 Mar, 2023 @ 2:22am

I guess rotate the skybox, the Cloud Horizon is Vertical from my stand point...

I'm looking up on the clouds were one side is put vertically with the mountains

vanilla earth, no other mods , fresh new game

Herr Doktor [author] 17 Mar, 2023 @ 1:45am

cloud angle plane is odd how? From on a planet?

CrimsonKNight_05 16 Mar, 2023 @ 4:58pm

Cloud angle plane is very ODD... Its need FIX?
theirs a big wall of cloud....

Know I how its like to be a dwarf in DAI, As if i'm gonna fall in to the clouds!!!XD

any the clouds looks majestic... but it need some tweaking...

[SPITFYRE] PJS 16 Mar, 2023 @ 3:22pm

@CDR_nik you would need to edit the .SBC mod file to those angles

sputNik 16 Mar, 2023 @ 2:42pm

how can I manually rotate the skybox? I need to change the angle to align with one part of a planet

Harpyhare 15 Mar, 2023 @ 2:32pm

this is sick, make's the space look more oniric

Herr Doktor [author] 15 Mar, 2023 @ 11:01am

Hmmm I’ll double check it when I get home. If needed I can rotate the skybox a bit. Could be my dds file isn’t as level as it appears to be.

KaoticOverlord 15 Mar, 2023 @ 4:46am

It was at like a 30 degree angle upward of being level with gravity for me, idk why we got different results, and i made sure to only use the two mod, so idk man

Herr Doktor [author] 14 Mar, 2023 @ 11:15pm

@Ethereal - But it does? I loaded it up and the gravity vector for down matches the skybox vector for down.

Chad The Menace 14 Mar, 2023 @ 8:20pm

is it in space to?

Stud Thompson 14 Mar, 2023 @ 7:01pm

Do you know how long ive waited for the return of a proper 'sky' skybox

KaoticOverlord 14 Mar, 2023 @ 6:52pm

sad that the skybox doesnt align with the gravity plane for the SpaceGravity mod (mentioned below)

Rox 14 Mar, 2023 @ 5:16pm

Somebody mentioned having grass on asteroids, but Keen already did that :D

Wraith 14 Mar, 2023 @ 5:13pm

You should check out these two very old mods that both have sky boxes which can be placed so you could have multiple skyboxes in the same world food for thought :)
Sektan Sky id=305108339 & Kreeg -Pandora Immersive Skybox id=1191940949

Wraith 14 Mar, 2023 @ 5:02pm

The only mod I remember is the planets atmo mod with o2 and gravity it can be buggy thou id=1835731149 use the blue planet atmo which is clear with rotating cloud layer.

Herr Doktor [author] 14 Mar, 2023 @ 12:48pm

@Wraith my dude! I’ve been looking for a mod like that for a while. Know of one that adds atmo to space as well?

Red Unit 14 Mar, 2023 @ 8:05am

This Skybox can help to make a beautiful place for base, thank you!

Talos 14 Mar, 2023 @ 12:45am

Very nice

Mantha 14 Mar, 2023 @ 12:20am

I was just messing with you lol, I understand why you'd want a skybox like this. The space purist in me just got offended, that's all XP

FemBoy TG 14 Mar, 2023 @ 12:04am

this look like a Last Exile battlefield, you should see the anime and try to recreate a war like them

Herr Doktor [author] 13 Mar, 2023 @ 9:04pm

It allows me to define my own up and down relative to the skybox since the skybox visually has an up/down. So now I can build with that orientation in mind which allows me to navigate around my builds in a more friendly manner. Is that better?

Mantha 13 Mar, 2023 @ 7:31pm

"allows me to keep my orientation at all times"
...Good sir. I do believe you are misunderstanding how space works...up and down are purely relative. Orientation is based purely on your targeted object, and what kind of mood you're in.

[SPITFYRE] PJS 13 Mar, 2023 @ 3:11pm

@Herr Doktor i would love to see a death star skybox if you ever have time/want to do that.

Herr Doktor [author] 13 Mar, 2023 @ 11:06am

Sideways in relation to what? I set the XYZ orientation of the skybox file to all zero. So Up/Down in game should equal Up/Down for the skybox. It’s the same concept the grey Builder Skybox uses.

Commander Ashfield 13 Mar, 2023 @ 10:58am

Anyone else having the problem with the skybox being oriented sideways?

LeRoy 13 Mar, 2023 @ 10:18am

What would be cool if you could figure out a way to have constant gravity

Herr Doktor [author] 13 Mar, 2023 @ 8:34am

Interfere how? You can only have one loaded at a time. Whichever skybox is highest on your mod load order is the one that will display in game.
