Sky shaders!

[e v i s k]

I'm a total newbie with Radiant and I was attempting to add a sky shader to a cubic room i did. I select the upper surface and then i load textures\skies\ After i placed the sky on the surface, i save, compile and play. The room is without light and if i add another light the sky shader dont work. The ski texture works like a normal one. Any clue?

ok...2 things..your not doing your light right....or your sky isnt right...not all sky shaders emit light....try the shader marked normallight....then bsp...fullvis(xtra).....

 

or place no lights and no sky ....and use bsp fullvis or fastvis(nolight)...this will allow you to view your map without worrying about lighting.
