Skies are built differently in UnrealED 3. Instead of creating a sky box, we now have to create a sky dome to implement a realistic sky in our maps. Custom skydome textures are difficult to create and are not yet freely available from the internet. This tutorial will show you how to convert skybox textures into a skydome.

This tutorial will show you how to output six skybox textures for use in your maps, using Terragen 2. This tutorial does not show you how to use Terragen 2 or how to create your sky.

This tutorial uses the Terragen 2 – Technology Preview 1 (Free Version), which is available from the official Planetside Software website. Note that the interface and ability of Terragen 2 is likely to change. Additionally, a plug-in which automates this process is likely to be delevoped at some point.

Terragen 0.9 users - download and use the skybox script instead!
