SKY

Postby cherish » Wed Apr 08, 2009 5:15 pm

Hello,
I am new at this and i have been working on the age for a while now as
i learn to use blender. I added a diff. sky that i liked better and did the
exporting and all but when i got to my age there was a diff. sky. It is not
showing the sky that i added in blender. So Race had me pack the file
and send it to him to check out and i did. He got it to work in his offline
uru and then sent me back the files with what ever he did to fix this
prob. so i readded the files back to my files and then also to offline uru,
which i did after i had deleted the recent one first. However when i got
back to my age it still showed the wrong sky. Race and i are a bit lost
on this subject, can someone help me to find the answer, Please ?

Thank you
Cherish

PS I will try not to be a big bother to you :)

cherish, if you used the same object but simply replaced the texture for your sky, your problem may be that you need to delete the tex chache file for the texture. Try this in the texture section of Blender, where it displays the file name of the texture make a note of the name of the texture. Then in the folder that your files are exported to, there should be a folder with the name of your age that reads "*Age Name_TexCache" in that folder find the file with the name of your texture and delete it. Then reexport and see if that solves the issue.

Thank you for helping, i deleted the tex cache file out of my folder on desk top before i exported it and i just checked the file in blender but it has only the one
i am trying to use there. What else could it be? To let you know what all i have
learned in blender thus far is: taking the mesh and sculpting it and adding the
ground texture and making a detail for the ground texture and applying it, adding
the foot step sound regions, and the sun as the light source. I also have added
sky textures before with no prob. except for this time. I have also added a wave
set once lol. I know i still have much to learn but at this point i need to find the
prob. with the sky and why i am not seeing the same sky that i used in blender in my age. Please help me find the solution to this prob.

Thank you
Cherish

Are the inside/outside faces of the polygons of your sky OK?

yes they should be, the sky worked for Race when i sent it to him to
check for me, but when i got it back from Race i went into uru to see
it and that is when it all was wrong ? I have tried everything i know
of to fix the prob. and all the things that others have told me to check.
It still is not fixed :( Please help

Thank you

So even the prp files that work in Race's installation show the wrong sky for you? In that case I would try deleting the age's sav file.
