So, I got this 3d World, but how do I give it a sky? I tried a
sphere with
cloud textures, but that's just ugly... So how could I best do it?
Your best bet would be to create a sky box. Google "sky box
rendering" for more info.
There's code in the Renegades project that's made with REALbasic and
also includes a way to generate a lens flare effect at <http://
www.codenautics.com/renegades/>.
If you don't already have a ready-made sky, you could use a 3D
terrain generator such as Bryce or Terragen to create your pictures.
This I feel is really the toughest part of creating a sky box (or for
your sphere method, which does work if the sky texture is done just
right).
Good luck!
