hey, does anyone know how to import a picture into WE and use it as the sky?

Make a blp based file of dimensions 512 x 512 and import it as Environment\Felwood\FelwoodSky\FelwoodSky.blp. Notice, the file will replace the sky path you set it to, so pick a sky you will not likely use. This one replaces the Felwood sky.

Well it didn't work for me, did it work for you?

xDeathKnightx · May 14, 2010

yeah it works fine for me.

Can it display the custom sky in WE using "K" to display or needs to be ingame or something?

xDeathKnightx · May 14, 2010

It works in WE using K or V to show in game view, that's what i did and it worked.

I made this to use it as my sky, see if it works for you:
Netherstorm Sky

Yeah it works

Legion_King · May 14, 2010

Well, thanks, doesn't work for me anyway.

Hmm, well when i done it, i just literally done what Pharaoh_ said and then when i was in WE, i change the Preference's so that the sky was my custom sky, i used a night sky with a moon, and then when i Pressed "V" to show in-game view, it come up with my sky, it did glitch a few times but it worked and i used :

Environment\Dalaran\DalaranSky\DalaranSky.blp

Sorry i can't be of more help...

use the preferences menu only for displaying it in the editor. to show it ingame you have to make an event (in the Initialisation trigger for example):

Actions
- Environment - Set sky to Dalaran Sky

its in the environment subcategory in case you were wondering.
