Mapping idea with moving background

[GaidinTS]

Just an idea, but could you make the background viewer move, or make the land around it a mover and have it move past the viewer at a fast rate? I'm jsut wondering, because this could make it very easy to create a level entirely on a moving train, or some other moving vehicle (through space... etc.) Just an idea, if anyone gets this to work, email me. I'd like to see your work.

Just a guess:

Parent the Backround Viewer to a Moving Brush. That should have it move in the skybox.

May/may not work... just an idea.

It WILL work. I've tried it. Try yourself if you don't believe me.

..it will? l33t!

Now, technically, could you place some Brushes in the Skybox, so if you wanted to make it look like you were on a train through a city, it would actually look right?

yea... thts how UT does it. with a moving brush attached to ur bg viewer you can do many things... including rotating a skybox(nice UT:Face effect) You can also put animated textures in the skybox.

Yeah...... just remember to set their Background flag (property) on, so that the backgroundviewer can see them.

Hell I even slapped one together. You can download it if you want to see how its done. Hope it helps if you are still stuck.

Rotating Background (http://forums.seriouscommunity.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=18316)

I dont know about making shadows move when a light source attached to a rotating background also moves, and I dont know if its possible. Can someone help with that?
