Beautiful! I think that's my favorite MB sky of all time. I'd love to visit it.

Breathtaking! Probably your best Terragen 2 sky.

SNOWS skybox released.
I found a program which I input my skies to, and it spits out a Quicktime .mov file, which displays a panorama of the sky. It is zoomable and draggable, so that you can view any area of the sky at once. I am not sure if it will work on other computers, because the Quicktime on my computer is copyrighted 2004.
I will be adding panoramas for all of my TG2 skies.

Snows is gorgeous, wow.... the .mov asks me to install quicktime 7, which i don't want to do right now.

Use VLC?
Edit: Just tried watching myself and for some reason VLC doesn't play it I'm not gonna install QuickTime, though.Edit #2: The .mov files themselves seem to be screwed up completely. I found a speedrun that uses .mov and I ran it fine in both VLC and avidemux and when I checked in avidemux I only had 5 frames of your .mov (VLC won't even play it) and each frame was completely different. I think it's completely messed up, so I can't watch it.

Well the .mov files work fine on both of my computers, (with Quicktime) and all 6 pictures seem to be there, so I don't know, maybe it only works with Quicktime.

I agree. Much more interesting than mountains and water.

NEW AGE skybox released!!!
A very realistic ringed planet, with stars and nebulae across the sky.
In my opinion, my best skybox to date, but that could change soon... mwahahaha...

Magnificent! I just wish we could make a level beautiful enough for that sky.

UTOPIA skybox created. It is my first skybox with man-made structures (I think).

Can I see the panoramas before I download them?

This is a landmark, Sim!
Bulinger, you can download the skybox and see if you like it. The panorama should be a more interactive version of that.

Obelisk is great, but very weird. Utopia is okay; I can't see what level would work with it.

1. Go to MBG/marble/data/skies 2. If the pictures are named sky_FR, sky_RT, then simply copy the sky pictures from the downloaded sky to the marble/data/skies folder. If the pictures are named 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, then copy the downloaded sky pictures into the marble/data/skies folder, but change the names of the new pictures as follows: sky_FR=1, sky_RT=2, sky_BK=3, sky_LF=4, sky_UP=5, sky_DN=6. If you can't understand that I will not bother trying to explain it again, ask someone else.

For MBP, copy the skybox folder to the marble/data/skies folder. Go to the .mis and find where the sky is listed and change the folder name (exampleskyboxfoldername) and the .dml name (example.dml). Caps, etc. must be intact. Sim doesn't include a .dml with his skies (I wish he did), but the Graphics Board Directory versions do.

At the top of the first page I DO have a .dml that works with ALL of my skies (thank you for pointing out that nobody reads that), but it is seperate. I may reupload all my TG2 skies with a .dml soon, to avoid confusion.

SOL skybox released! As the name implies, it contains the earth, with the moon in the background.
All of my skies now include .DML files.
I will be upgrading my thumbnail pictures soon.
