Sky Box: How do i change the size?

by Elliott Kelley · in Technical Issues · 01/29/2008 (7:42 pm) · 2 replies

I want to change the size of the sky box.
because honestly, 256 x 256 is not nearly enough pixels for a good starry sky.
how can i change the sky box to accept images of larger sizes? say, 1024 x 1024, or 2048 x 2048.

i want to make the sky box look realistic.

Fairly certain you can use images greater than 256x256, it just downres's them. I think. Could be way off base.

I have used 512x512 without trouble, though. And it looked crisper than 256x256, but if memory serves, not as crisp as the actual image.
