The Sky-Way (of Creating New Sky Boxes)

Post by benpark »

I've uploaded a master PSD file with layers for creating new sky boxes. It's divided into 4 sections of 512x512 images that together should form a contiguous sky that we see in game.

Get it here:

With this, you could divide any sky picture into these 4 sections to create a new sky. How we generate the one we see in the Map Maker I haven't figured out yet, but its probably just a re-sized image of three or four together.

A quick test of all 4 together to give an idea of what you can do (I used a freeware program called "Sky Panorama" that doesn't seem to be available anywhere anymore, but I think any decent picture will do):
