Well if you are making a indoor map I know usually you will plane model it and add walls as you go. But can you just make the map and then without adding walls to the plane drag a box around the other model and link them to the frame or what would i have to do?

EDIT: and what would i name the plane and the box?

I box model it, makes it easier, because whenever I create polygons I get open edges and the like :\ also names don't matter. You don't even have to name the level "skybox" like most tutorials say.

Still hasnt answered one of my questions how do i make it indoor instead of outdoor like some of the indoor maps that have a ceiling and no sky how do i do that?

By adding light fixtures, or at least: light emitting textures to replace the need for a sky as the main source of lighting.

No, light fixtures don't really help that much. I just make one part of my level (usually the cieling) the +sky material, then set the sky to illuminate the whole level. I have no idea how Bungie did a10 though, but there were windows in parts, so...

dont use +sky material. instead, create a scenery with a light as an attachment. edit the radiosity light as you wish. (if you type 100 in the field, it will make daylight for surfaces till 100 world units distance, and so on.

Or make a little box above the map and add the +sky material and an ! symbol. So the material should look like this:
+sky!

And that should work. Also, add lights.

light emitting textures are what's in a10, so i recommend them
