Title: FOV issue rendering Skybox
Post by: _duke_ on March 05, 2010, 02:40:08 AM
I fixed, i simply created a new camera with animationsequence, now it works fine...

Hello folks, i have trouble rendering my skybox. I use terragen since the very first version but only a few times a year.
I constantly use it for skyboxes. Since i recieved the new terragen 2 a few days ago a have trouble concerning different issues.
One big is, that i'm not able to render fitting skybox squares. I'm not talkin about the GI stuff, but the clouds and the landscape doesn't fit at all at the borders. I set FOV to 90, and that is the right number to get fine results. What am i doing wrong here?

Thx in advance
Daniel

Hi,

Are you guys rendering square images for the sides of the box?
