So I followed the tutorial and I got the skybox to work, but using the "IS SKY" option made the skybox translucent and you could see everything behind it. Not sure what caused this, but I was able to get around it by turning off "IS SKY", keeping the other material settings the same and then turning off "Cast's Shadows" in the sphere mesh settings, as well as setting the Collison mesh to "no collision". If anyone else had this issue, hopefully this helps!
I am currently far along on my first project and was wondering how to do this. Thank you for another great video. They help beginners like myself get our bearings. I started off being clueless, but now I'm not too far off from actually publishing a game with UEFN.
If Tim Sweeney said verse is the future of UE6 then we are gonna need you on the epic documentation team! Hope you become a big figure over the next few years thanks for coming back with some bangers
Excellent tutorial. Very similar steps I used in a prior project. One extra tip for those that like to go really big. Your sky might disappear at certain distances. For example if you go to the edge of your map, your entire sky might just disappear. This is the rendering distance of the mesh. You need to select the mesh and change the rendering distance in the details panel. Depending on how big your landscape is, you may need to make this a very high number. For my projects in the past, I've set my skyboxes to about 100k and that works.
@@XraiFn With the sphere or box selected, scroll all the way down to the bottom in the details panel (default right side). The section you're looking for is LOD and the setting is Desired Max Draw Distance. You can also search for that setting by searching "Draw" in the details search bar.
Thank you for the amazing video/tutorial ,and showing skybox ai! The creativity of this and what it can produce is honestly such eye candy! I left a subscription and when I have free Time I am so watching your videos just to increase your watch time and support the channel further!
Verse, I hate that language and I know Python, js, go, java 😅. Could you make a tutorial where a 3 dimensional array of floating rocks gets spawned and these rocks are switching positions with each other (by flying from point to point) ? I was unable to make it work because verse gets lost in attempt to run it (not me gets lost! The functions of what's available for us in uefn, seems can't do that) 😭
If anyone runs into the problem where their sphere disappears after you click for placement, you gotta hit ENTER. I was trying to just click to place then go up back to selection mode and it would vanish every time. After you click to set it down, you need to hit enter. It will then give you the XYZ Axis handles to move the placement and you can then jump back to selection mode or w/e you wish.
Great tutorial! I have a question is it possible to change the skybox in game in real time? Like if I use a button it will change to another skybox? Thank you
very helpful video, i just have one question. is it possible to make a sphere with a skybox material that when shot at changes the skybox? i want multiple skyboxes and a way for the user to change them when they want
Do you know if there's a specific setting or quality that would make the HDR image not act in the manner you showed? For instance, one texture and material I made (using the Nvidia tool) refused to show itself from inside the sphere. The second texture and material I used did show, exactly as you showed in the video. All settings in the material were exactly the same. Thanks for the tutorials!!
Great tutorial, it worked for the most part. But currently experiencing a major issue, my skybox shows in UEFN and looks fine with no problems, however when I start the game the skybox is not there at all in-game. Do you have any ideas or anything that would make the skybox actually visible in-game since I followed all the steps. Thanks.

Hello! Thank you so much for your time you put into your videos really like no one else is doing the stuff you are teaching! However, I followed your video TO THE TEA and for some reason the floor is the sky but I do not see it around or above me....
Why does my sphere disappear when i do it lol. As soon as I attach the material, that I created exactly as described using the exporter tools and that ai site, it just goes invisible. Looks perfectly fine in the material editor preview though.
This is unrelated but could you do a verse tutorial on the sleep function and using it for millisecond timing devices? I can’t find much info about it on the wiki
Oh wow thanks for the links, I should be able to find some excellent skyboxes now, also excellent info on how it is all done, cheers. Do you know if there is a way to disable clouds moving on the default skybox?
@@WarforgeXPoh wow thank you for that honestly, it's so hard finding some info I find the building part very easy it's all the settings and devices that scramble my brain and bog me down for long spells, thanks again
Great video! Do you know how to remove the clouds that are on by default in UEFN and cast shadows even through the skybox? I have lost sleep over this.
Is there a way to change rendering distance for a barrier device? Because doesn't seem to be working with performance mode, sky is only rendered on the bottom part.
Hello I really learned a lot from this tutorial, thanks! I have one question, I hope anyone knows the answer to this, When I load in the skybox in uefn the quality is very sharp, no pixels whatsoever, but when Iaunch session It seems a little bit pixelated, does anyone know how to fix this?
Im having a problem where you can only see the sky well on dx12. You cant see it at all in performance mode and you can only kind of see it on dx 11 once you turn your effects setting up
Thx for this! Just curious…is there a way to give credit to others whose assets you used in an island? Didn’t know if there was an accepted convention for doing so.
do u have a solution for when the skybox appears to be half ingame? In uefn itself its showing fully, but when I actually go ingame it shows only half. So the bottom of the skybox is shown but the upper part is just the default fortnite/uefn sky
hi, i selected an 8k resolution on my skybox image but it looks so pixelated that it feels like it runs on a potato resolution. it doesnt give the 3D depth vibe as it should. any tips on what this could be?
I know this is a dumb question, but can you guys give a tutorial for simple game modes like payload or capture point? I’ve already looked for tons of tutorials on the topic, but the problem is that they’re super out of date because Fortnite got rid of their channel system and replaced it with the system. so I can’t even complete of these tutorials because of the channels are removed. Also, it’s really weird how all of the Fortnite creative people disappeared for a couple months
@@mrbeest2046 yeah so what i did, was change my mesh to a transparent material. Then created a cinematics level sequencer that replaced the transparent mesh with my skybox material. Then used that on a cinematic sequence device and connected it to a switch so it only turned on when I used the switch in game.
I did the second way and I did everything correctly but my skybox is translucent ? I can see the Fortnite void through it and the sky doesn't go all the way around it's not 360. It stops halfway through almost like a half sphere but I created a sphere shape. I created 2 different skyboxes and I'm having this problem with both. Help? 😭
Your mesh is disappearing because it’s so big. Make it slightly smaller or disable streaming for that mesh. Also make sure to set clouds to zero in a day sequencer device
I have a problem with this. This doesn't seem to work when playing in performance mode. You can only see the skybox when looking at the island from outside the skybox. Even then, it shows only where it intersects with the ground. As someone else said here in the comments, it does work if you disable "Is Sky" property, but then it doesn't look good. Any solution to make this work properly in performance mode? Tried using rectangles insted of sphere, same issue.
My texture is bugged, its reflcting on surfaces only outside of the skybox, and once inside the skybox, its not even reflecting at all. Can someone tell me what the problem is? i followed every texture steps. The sphere is also invisible, i can only see the reflections on my island when outside of the sphere. Edit: i unchecked is sky and it worked
@@mattbergman2788 THX!!!, Also do you have any idea how can i make the lightning work?, it feels like the standard ligthining from the map is making the skybox image too bright.
