Check the attachment, the pk3 is done in a way that's most clear possible. Also I added a nifty script on the map for lulz plus a reference for new usage for DoomEdnums inside MapInfo.txt I like the effect, but surely I must give to this a deep try in order to get all the points, but everything's there and I am starting to like it really. #### File Attachment: File Name: [ DYNSKIES.zip](https://www.realm667.com/forum/attachment/298 "DYNSKIES.zip") File Size:14.61 KB *Also it has a connection though: The SkyBox Viewpoint.

It's the better choice imho and you'll save a lot of space. All this time I've been using Hexen format (pretty much without any deviation) because that's what I'd been used to since I first dabbled in DB2 years ago. Lol, I saw that you could set the fade and color right in the properties tab in this format and was like "yeah, this from now on" xD thanks! And I'm on it.

In fact I just renamed the SCRIPT compiled library into DYNSKY yesterday... it was 3am so that's why ![XD](https://www.realm667.com/laugh.gif "XD") :fear: Anyway, check ZDoomWiki to gather some more infos concerning libraries and usage under pk3'd files. They can improve greatly your works though. [ Directives](http://zdoom.org/wiki/Directive) [ Libraries](http://zdoom.org/wiki/Libraries) Keep in mind that in order to use the #import directive inside a library, you ALWAYS have to set up your directives with the #library declaration before anything else, so you may have something like this: Code: \#library "dynsky" #include "zcommon.acs" #import "functns.acs" ... Also stay always within 8 characters at least, this is mandatory.
