Yes i know, but mine is a little bit different, because the skybox is an extension of the touch-able brush. Take a look

The fog showing excactly where the skybox begins...

How high is your fog end in in the real level? 3d skyboxes need to have a pretty high fog end setting to make the transition look right. While the fog in your actual level works well, it won't work nearly as well in the 3d skybox. Just experiment until you get it right. :thumbup:

Sky_camera:
Fog start: 3000
Fog end: 7000

Real level
Fog start: 1000
Fog end: 3000

7000 isn't enough for a 3d skybox. Judging from you're picture, I would suggest doing something along these lines:

Fog Start: 100.0
Fog End: 20000.0

The fog settings in the skybox camera are not scaled. If you write 5000 in there, it will be really 5000 units in Portal, but your skybox content will get scaled.

For example set the same values like in your fog_controller, so both fogs witll behave the same.
