Help with Sky

[Ice]

I'm trying to put a sky into SRB2 (256x256), I put the texture in between P_START and P_END and named it SKY1, then I added it to patch names, and then added it to texture (in that order), and it still gives me an error message of "R_LoadTextures: Missing patch in texture sky".
What am I doing wrong? I'm surely missing something here.

It might be conflicting with the SKY1 that is already in the TEXTURE1 lump of the srb2 IWAD. Try naming it something that isn't taken like SKY2. You might need to split that texture into 2 patches, since its height is larger then 255 pixels. You could also crop the sky texture so it is 256x255.

Uhh... you can't have a patch with a height over 255 pixels.

EDIT: Oh great. I was beaten by Torgo... =/

Oh well...

Gah, my copy of XWE is retarded. I'll be working on the wad, and then suddenly it'll just say that it can't find the wad. When I try to load it again it says the same thing. The only way I have been able to modify the wad is to move it to a different folder, open it with XWE again, and work on it before it stops reading it.
I'll get back to you if it works though.

EDIT: Ok, but now I get these errors when I open it in SRB2DoomBuilder:

Double post. It's all fixed thanks to Torgo.

I think that this might be my first ever triple post.

How do I get rid of this ugly black line? I edited the sky a bit and now I can't get rid of it.

 

[Fawfulfan]

Is your sky image the right dimensions? It might be one line too short.

 

[Torgo]

I think that is a problem even in some official skies. If you really want to fix it, you might have to use 2 patches and use 256x256.

 

[Ice]

But it wasn't a problem before I edited it. When you sent me the fixed version it was fine.

How about four patches of 128x128?
