Title: Rotate Skybox [SOLVED]
Post by: Michaelb on September 19, 2016, 03:26:36 PM

Hi to all and thank you in advance for your help on this topic.

I want to rotate the Skybox in the environment lighting tab.

Have several skybox cube map materials that i assign to Skybox.

And i want to rotate the skybox with a slider.

A second part is that i want to control the brightness of the skybox with a slider as well.

I am on a tight deadline and what seemed so eazy turned out to be a nightmare.

Thank you.

I think you cant do it, you can map a sky panorama on a dome (half sphere) and rotate that.

Found solution with second camera.

First camera gets depth only.
Second camera get skybox.
Parent second camera to the first camera so it shows exactly the same on both.
First camera renders the scene , second the skybox.
If you rotate the second camera it rotates the skybox and you see it through the first one ;).

Second cameras depth must be lower that the first camera depth in the camera settings.

Thats it.
