Problem with DoomBuilder

[booman77]

yeah I was working on my first map. I have everything set, but the only tile that doesn't show up is the sky! It says i don't have it. I have everything else but that. Help?

This is something that new mappers tend to get confused by, but it's not a problem: sky is drawn in a different way from other flats. There's no real flat called F_SKY1; it's just a signal to the renderer saying "do your magic sky stuff here, please". Now, not all map editors know about this, and so they just assume that it's missing. It's not a problem. You don't have to do anything about it.

To see how to choose different skies, look at the Map Header section of the SRB2 Wiki.

Indeed it's something that gets confused by new mappers. This is the reason why we should force new mappers to read tutorials by putting in the topic "READ THIS OR YOUR MAP WILL SUCK EGGS" :P.
