Skyboxes #27

Closed tacotexmex closed 7 years ago

tacotexmex commented 7 years ago

Some texture packs, like Pixel Perfection, have skyboxes included. Is there a way to support them?

sofar commented 7 years ago

Yes, but modifying skyboxes requires that a mod adds them.

We could import them into the texture pack, but there's no way for the player to see them unless some lua code (on the server) actually enables them.

So, right now we consider it out of scope, since it can't be themed client-side.

Thanks for considering the issue. May I ask if such server mod exist, or do I have to make one?

sofar commented 7 years ago

I have not seen any specific mod that does this. I've heard of some subgames doing this, but don't recall names. It's not that difficult, though, just check the lua_api.txt to see the sky functions.
