Map sky backdrop rotation?

captainhunter1

Hi everyone,

Anyone know if there is a way to rotate map sky backdrops to a different orientation when compared to map's static position?

For example: rotating a sky backdrop to align a planet in the sky with a mountain for story purposes.

Thanks!

Nope, I'm pretty sure they're fixed. What you might do is just go to the Rura Penthe ground map and place whatever dialog is setting this condition up in a place where a planet just so happens to be behind a particularly large and pointy hill.

No, that's not even a tool we have on the dev side. If we wanted a planet over a mountain, we have to modify the skyfile itself to accomplish that.

How involved is that? It sounds more complicated than mirroring or rotation.

Well...darn.

Thanks everyone for the responses.

The backdrop does change in one of my Mirror Wars missions 'Mirror Wars 2 [V]' During X scene ... you can look out the window with one backdrop but when you get closer to the window it changes to whatever I selected as the backdrop.
