Dennis, free me from this suffering

Well, Bonjour mes amis!

Right on babes, I've seen to have run into an issue with my sky tag. Welp, the sky shows up, with the dome texture and the sun flare, but the clouds, mountains, halo ring, planets and other shenanigans do not show up. I went to the model of the sky dome, and all the faces are flipped the right side, and nothing is hidden. I compiled the bitmaps in every possible format 32 bit, 16 bit, compressed with interloped alpha... etc and just didn't do the job. Well after hours of endless frustration and tired of looking at the bland expression on my face I became itzziryfitzzyrijitzziry enough to post here. Well my main bros...







Time to spend my time in other hobbies, but before my right arm grows stronger than my left arm, I would like to hear some possible explanations.

Cheers and thank you, beforehand.

You are using shader_transparent_chicago and not shader_model, right?

I already know how to add regions, sorry but that's not the issue. I just deleted HEK, Halo and everything. When I restore my PC again, il reinstall and create a new one from scratch.

Thanks either way guys.

I fixed this issue once. If I recall correctly, when setting up regions the numbers don't do anything. The only thing that matters is what order you link them to the frame. Of course, don't forget to re-export after re-linking everything. I can't remember if first link object appears in front, or vice-versa, but it should be fairly certain to determine.

To export regions I used Blitzkrieg and 3ds max 8 in a virtual machine running XP.

Let me know if it works, I'm fairly certain that was the trick.
