how can i add more skyboxes such as half life skyboxes?

is it possible to make a script to replace water

i love it

could you make a script that can convert imported maps that were originally at night to day?

Are the skybox preview images in the script mainmenu? It seems that the image is not loading properly.

I tried everything, but the image does not appear.

Oh yes, it worked!
Thankies!

try verifying sfm files

Dude, it doesn't work
What does this mean? : 6> Running script 'd:\steam\steamapps\common\sourcefilmmaker\game\platform\scripts\sfm\mainmenu\skybox helper.py' ...

I even did what you said in the description, it even worked before but now it doesn't
Any solution?

does any error pop up in the console, when you launch the script?

Hopefully I can still get help with this. With my current gameinfo.txt, the script doesn't show up. When I replace it with the temporary one provided, the script shows up. I compared the gameinfo.txts and they look to be exactly the same. Is there a reason this doesn't work? Have I done something wrong?

Yes. Especially plenty of others.

does any error pop up in the console when that happens?

What I mean is some skies such as "xen_sky_6" from Black Mesa: Source don't work even though I extracted all the skybox materials from it. This sky I mentioned goes from rt, ft, lf, bk, up, and dn.

the ones that are split up are just images the script made from the .vtf files, while the ones not split are images taken from the wiki.

I wonder why some skyboxes are split into pieces like the ones from Black Mesa and such. They don't even work even with this script. Do we have to work on them in hard ways like this?

Works as intended, thank you

ahh ye noticed some them dont have the fully 6 parts of the file

Pure gold. U'r a life saver, pal

does each skybox have the 6 .vtf files it needs to render and do the names end with rt,ft,lf,bk,up,dn

sky_"name"
Trying to use hl2 beta skyboxes

how are the names formatted?

they are vtf files but it wont read em

So i created a skybox folder.into usermod materials but it wont show them in the list for some reason

Yes, thanks ! Would be super helpful so I don't have to go through every single one of them manually to find one I like (Take forever to load one so a preview would be nice)

yes I know about this bug. Im still working on a fix. probably this weekend I should have a fix ready

The script in itself work, it just won't show any preview.

For some reason, whatever I do, it doesn't show any preview of the skyboxes. It isn't custom skybox and even with the thing added, it still doesn't work.

thanks for telling me, i updated the link.

Can't download VTFLib v1.3.2 Binary Archive
Forbidden

even after a clean install, I sadly cannot get this script working again. wish i knew why. really miss the utility

Okay, so just today, the script stopped working for seemingly no reason whatso-floundering-ever.
Here's the what the console spat out, in case it helps.

yes just add your custom skybox to anyone of your search paths skybox folder in materials. the script will automatically find it.

is there a way to add own skyboxes

under the script menu, on the menubar.

how do you open that tab sorry

oh wait, i didn't ready carefully in your how to set list.

@MEGATRONUS, its under the script menu, on the menubar.

wheres the Skybox Helper Script button? can't you show us a tutorial of it please?

that specific map

So it keeps it in that specific map or for all the maps?

if you save it, it keeps it after restarting

Just a question

When you change the skybox does it keep the skybox untill you restart sfm or do you have to keep swapping it out?

On the menubar, in the scrpit menu

How do I find it?

oh yes, thanks im new to sfm and scripts..

@Stephen Ambre Onyx Azarov, its under the script menu, on the menubar.

um, i don't understand what to do for this to work...

Worked like a charm! You're the best!

if you used the save option then just go to "SourceFilmmaker\game\usermod\cfg" look for "map name.ctf" and delete it
