How do I change a skybox of a game once I have one?

So a Shepard said to his flock; "Thou shalt be confuseth!" and so they were.

Well first...read the manual.
Then use the search function on these forums.
Read Nickydude's Guide.

And then...You know almost anything about FPSC.

But as for the answer:

Open FPSC,
Go to Build Game/Level Settings,
Then edit the Global scripts.


Or.

Go to your FPSC directory,
Files/Languagebank/English/Gamebank/Mygame.
And open the Setuplevel.fpi


Cheers,
Cheese Cake.

Yes you could change it from level to level.

I basically said how you could change the skybox.

Yes you can.
I usually do it after I build the game with some additional scripts.

I do agree that the first question could have been answered with a look at the manual or a search.
However changing the sky from level to level isn't exactly in the manual so if you know how to do it then describe it.

I found this thread by searching for 'sky' in the scripts forum.

The skybox requires six images ,usually .dds.
Take a look in the skybank folder.

Skyboxes can be tga, dds.

Just the regular texture formats that FPSC can handle.
But remember when you want to make your own skybox
that you have to need to make several textures just for 1 skybox.

Example:

Up,
Down,
Left,
Right,
Front,
Back.

Cheese Cake.
