Jump map idea + multiple skyboxes

[Badeendnl]

Randy and me started like a few weeks back an awsome jump map (and no it isn't a only floating map;)). But now we finnaly start to understand how mapmaking works and we thought, we can do better then this. So we'll use some of the bounces we made and we will make a whole new senery. We have a hard and an easy way. We thought lets make 2 totally different worlds, so now I have 2 questions:. x)
-Is it pos to add 2 skyboxes to 1 map
-Do you have any good ideas for theme's, (I know the pretty basics, but I'm still not a mapping gurue, so nothing to hard (danthemanlike)).
For my part of the map I thought of something like snowstorm/christmas or lego. But my question for snowstorm is, is there anykind of skybox for that? And please name some other theme's aswell.

Any help is highely appricatied!!!

I thingk that it's possible to have 2 different skyboxes, but then each skybox will have to have the same worldspawn settings i suppose... not sure though

[Drofder2004]

Only 1 skybox per map.

Also, search. 2 previous topics with title "multiple skybox"...

[B4.]

What about 1 larger skybox cut in 2 by a wall/clip and teleport between areas,

If 2 of you are working on it, you must still work on the same .map file.

Theme's, will thats part of mapping, being inventive.

[Rezil]

You can only have one skybox in a map and it has to surround your entire map, otherwise you get a .bsp leak, which is bad. Very bad.

As for themes and ideas...

[Drofder2004]

If 2 of you are working on it, you must still work on the same .map file.

Not true.

You can make a map file that contains 2 (or however many people are doing it) prefabs.
Each prefab is assigned to a person.

If one person acts as a host (compiler) then the people working on the prefabs can simply upload (or transfer) their prefab to the host and the host can compile.

Easy.

Hey everybody

Please dont go off topic xD

i have another question

Because we are going to make 2 different worlds and we can't use 2 different sky boxes, is it possible to make each world have 1 color ... i mean for example 1 world is completely red and the other 1 is completely yellow

inb4 use lights ...... no light is not a good option xD its going to be a huge map ..... CBA to add a lot of lights D:

but if there are no other way well ..... i have to add lights D:

and about the theme....

i really appreciate your help Rezil but the problem is we are new to map making and if we are going to use those ideas as theme its going to be so hard for us .... but that's not a problem

if someone can give me a good source for map making ( except this http://wiki.modsrepository.com/index.ph ... mapping_mp )

i,ll try my best to make a good map

Thnx

Randy.

1 Skybox
1 Worldspawn

All other lighting must be done using light entities.
