SKYBOX_* Constant Group
Skybox constants must match those in the skyboxes.2da file. They are to be used with the SetSkyBox() function.
Constants
| Constant | Value | Description |
|---|
| SKYBOX_DESERT_CLEAR | 3 | | A clear desert skybox, useful on any of the outdoor desert tilesets (one of which comes with Shadows of Ulrentide). |
|
| SKYBOX_GRASS_CLEAR | 1 | | A generic looking, clear-grass skybox. This is best used in a rural-type tileset, but looks fine in any city. |
|
| SKYBOX_GRASS_STORM | 2 | | This is a dark, thunderstorm-like skybox. It is good to use it in the same places you'd use the GRASS_CLEAR constant, and is useful for anywhere a storm is going on. |
|
| SKYBOX_ICY | 5 | | A very white, cold and icy looking landscape - best used in the Hordes of the Underdark ice tileset, or with Shadows of Ulrentide's winter rural setting. Goes well with snow. |
|
| SKYBOX_NONE | 0 | | No skybox. Turns it off. Poof, no sky. Of course, without any GetSkyBox(), why you'd want to make it so a PC just sees nothing (given you have set the fog back far enough) in an area might be hard to judge.
No skybox is of course better performance, however. |
|
| SKYBOX_WINTER_CLEAR | 4 | | This is a clear winter landscape and sky. Best used in Shaodow of Ulrentides winter rural tileset, or any one which is snowing and outdoors. Generally, the Icy one can be a little too...icy for most snow, and this makes it look a lot less like the landscape is actual ice. |
