Problem with env_sun, sun does not appear

#1 · October 8, 2011, 1:05 pm

Hi,

today i started with mapping. I read lots of tutorials and almost everything works fine...
...but since 2 hours im stuck with creating an env_sun in my map.
I followed several tutorials on how to create a sun but whatever i try, the sun does not appear ingame.
Are skies like "sky_white" or "sky_fog" not compatible with an env_sun?
I would really apreciate some tips

Here is what i have done so far: http://void42.de/skybox01.rar

Thanks, but this was also one of the tutorials i read.
I downloaded the example from this tut just now and changed the sky to "sky_fog"... also no sun.
Seems like the simple Portal 2 skies dont work with an env_sun.
