I can't recall what the VTEX config command is off the top of my head
but you need to set the "Hint DXT5" flag which tells VTEX to make sure
all the edges blend seamlessly.

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):

The first problem (allowing compression) is that VTEX shifts the skybox
texture creating a line on the left side:

Then using "nocompress" "1" VTEX introduces some weird color problem in
addition to the alignment shift:

Here is a complete zip with all the materials and materialsrc files:

I've looked extensively through the sourcewiki but there is nothing about
this.
Any help here very much appreciated.
