custom skybox texture

[lethal moth]

Im trying to make a full white custom skybox texture so it match with my fog
The only issue is when I try to do so, the sky box just appears completely black

Can someone tell me how to do it please ?

[dull kindle]

you want it to be 100% white?

what do you have so far

[lethal moth]

yes this is what I made so far

just a white 600 x 120 rectangle

[dull kindle]

You dont need a vtf

[lethal moth]

I should just use it in .png ?

[dull kindle]

no

in the VMTs you can literally just do

$basetexture white

[lethal moth]

like this ?

[dull kindle]

yes

[lethal moth]

that didn't worked

[dull kindle]

it does in game

[lethal moth]

I might have done something wrong but it doesn't work for me
here is the .vmt and the map save

[dull kindle]

you need 6 VMTs

[lethal moth]

I followed all the steps still black

I might just give up

[dull kindle]

what do your VMTs look like

and what did you put for your skybox name in map properties

[lethal moth]

this is just bk but i made dn,fr, ... too

[dull kindle]

i don't think gmod supports sky shader

just use unlitgeneric

you also don't need $hdrcompressedtexture

[lethal moth]

ok so instead of sky at the top i put unlitgeneric ?

and remove $hdrcompressedtexture

[dull kindle]

yes

also do you really have 6 different vtfs?

you only need one

[lethal moth]

still not working here is everything

all the .vmt are the same

[lethal moth]

I put "skybox/white_skybox"

[dull kindle]

why do you have 2

[lethal moth]

a vtf and a vmt

[dull kindle]

you don't need a vmt called white_skybox

[lethal moth]

yea but with or without is the same

[dull kindle]

can you send me all of the files

[lethal moth]

I surely can

[dull kindle]

unsure how I missed this, your problem is that path is relative to skybox

so you just literally need to put white_skybox in that box

and it'll work
