I've been trying to transfer and update some custom skybox textures but the current VTEX appears to have two problems that are messing up the files.
I verified that this happens even taking a stock skybox, converting it to TGA and then back to VTF again. I also have verified that VTEX is detecting this as a skybox conversion and it issues the appropriate message: 'skybox' detected. Treating skybox like a cubemap for edge-matching purposes. Here is one of the original good panels (in jpg for viewing here): http://www.qsextreme.com/source/tornsky_512up.jpg The first problem (allowing compression) is that VTEX shifts the skybox texture creating a line on the left side: http://www.qsextreme.com/source/tornsky_512up_compressed.jpg Then using "nocompress" "1" VTEX introduces some weird color problem in addition to the alignment shift: http://www.qsextreme.com/source/tornsky_512up_nocompress.jpg Here is a complete zip with all the materials and materialsrc files: http://www.qsextreme.com/source/vtex_skybox_conversion_problem.zip I've looked extensively through the sourcewiki but there is nothing about this. Any help here very much appreciated.
