Category: CS:S > Mapping	Author(s): Did you create this? Request ownership
In this tutorial i will tell you how to make a skybox with Valve Hammer Editor. I will use the map sdk_water as an example. Note I have highlighted some key areas of the screenshots with black. ===================================================== 1. Open the map u wish to put a skybox for. [Screenshot A] 2. Then select the Entity's button (the one that looks like a light bulb) and from the drop down menu on the right under "Categories" select "Prefabs" and from the object drop down list select "Box". [Screenshot B] 3. Now go into the middle of your map looking strait down at it and click on the ground. This should make a skybox were you clicked. [Screenshot C] 4. Now resize the skybox to fit around your map. You should make it a tight fit around the walls of your map so that you will not fall out of the map to the bottom of your skybox. [Screenshot D] 5. Don't worry about the green man that came with the skybox nor the random green thing on the floor. They will not make any effect what so ever to your map. [Screenshot E] ===================================================== I hope you have learned how to make a very simple skybox from this tutorial.
