Weird, first time i started mapping it was a fullout ctf-map with reasonable lighting and some good bots and gameplay but man it was ugly texturelike. I could do some neat tricks now but NEVER EVER ask me to texture something.

Skies are boxes but usually with shaders on them or skyboxes which are boxes with still images. No linky though

Woohoo i'm the devil :icon34:

i will have to experiment on my own until someone finds some or i find some :(
Remember if you find any post them here straight away!
Also, another question can you take maps that are already in the game and edit them eg, add bits on etc If you can then please can you tell me how?
thnx very much :)

Impossible unless you get a program that converts them back to map files and then you'll still lose some info. There however is 1 map that comes with the installation of radiant which you can edit. Just stick with making your own. Much more fun too.

Btw, you make a space map the exact same way you made that box above...just alot bigger.

To make the sky, go to textures/skies.
