[Mod][WIP] Skybox Extended [skybox_extended]
Posted: Tue Dec 22, 2015 10:22Greetings Minetest Community!
This mod adds a simple coded interchangeable skybox which adds Space to a regular minetest world, adding certain realism when going into higher altitudes.
NOTE: This mod is still work in progress, would like volunteers to help me test this mod entirely.
If you have any further Ideas for this mod feel free to share them here.
NOTE: I've tested this on one of my public minetest servers during my spare time, so far it works very well.
The skybox images that I was using as a placeholder to test the mod is from Xonotic, please give credit to Cuinn Herrick if you are using his images.
Credits: Kudos to Amaz for helping me adding a check timer code and paramat for reviewing the code.

Dependencies: None
Requires: Minetest 0.4.11 or Higher
Version: 0.2

When on earth
When in space (Currently activates at Y = 1000)
Screenshots were taken from one of my WIP servers, please focus on the skybox changes instead of the other things that are shown in these images.
