^ Doesn't Make Any Sense...

I think you were trying to say was:

"You know how I was trying to make new skies? But I can't! Because there are no blank .dml files!?!"

Work on your grammar bud, people might be able to help easier...

The best person to ask is Dazzle, but keep in mind there is a whole modding forum just a click away... Maybe check it out on the search bar... I know that is something we've told you to do in the past... But being a nice person, I guess I'll give you the link... This is the last time though rOOts! Do some digging in the search bar and you'd be surprised what you can find!

The link is as follows:

P.S. You got two threads with the same topic and question... Delete one please :tankerwinks:

First of all, roots, are you trying to make skies that can be seen in a mod such as the DZ_skys? Or, are you making them as a skin to replace your Lush, Frantic or Spooky skies? If you are making them as a skin, You don't need a dml. You just need to make the skin of the sky and replace it with your old lush/frantic/spooky skys.

As for making skies that can be used in a mod that everyone can see, I'd like to know that too. How do you make a .dml?

  • copy + paste an existing .dml
  • change the filenames inside to match yours (you can open it with TextEdit or Notepad)
  • save all files (.dml and the pics) in your skies folder
  • change the sky on your mod

    Code: Select all

     new Sky(Sky) {
       ...
       materialList = "game/data/skies/my_awesome_sky.dml";
      ...
    }
simple.

copy and past it in a different folder - then change the name and edit it to make your own sky.
Afterwards move it back into the skies folder together with all images.
