Im trying to make the camera follow your ship as it moves, however the space background would not move making it look like you are not moving at all

see attached map: http://www.2shared.com/file/FdUpuoKK/how_to_make_space_background_m.html

VIDEO:

See how the background stars are not moving away or towards your ship as it moves?

@DrSuperEvil: Go

the background does move, but not relative to your ship, so it will still look like your ship is stationary

Make it into a model, scale it down, attach it to your ship.

@JacktheArcher: Go

when the ship moves, the model moves along with it, so it looks like your ship is not moving relative to the attached skybox

also, other players would see each other's attached skybox

@DrSuperEvil: Go

really appreciate your help, but the problem still exist where "the ship doesnt look like it is moving relatively away from the attached background" so it will look like it is not moving

im bad at explaining this, but do u mind just checking out the attached map in the op? you will see that the background isnt moving, and by attaching an attachment it wudnt fix the visual problem

thnx!

Hi, the monorail background from mission 2 only moves straight, i need it to move in the direction the Viking is moving, and cant just retexture it since the monorail background is more like a canyon, i need a space background

i have uploaded a video of wat im talking about:

as you can see, the background doesnt move although your ship is moving, causing it to look like your ship is not moving

this is another video where it shows an attached skybox: as you can see as i have tried to tell u guys before, the skybox will move along with the Viking, making it look like it isnt moving (the stars in the background are not moving)

@DrSuperEvil: Go

Hi, i cant find this monorail background which is indoor before canyon, ive looked at mission 1 and mission 2 can you give me the specific name of the model?

also, is it possible to do it without using HOTS assets?

@QuantumMenace: Go

yeah, but it still doesn't move the background stars relative to your ship Aka doesn't solve my problem

i have attached a video on youtube, depicting the problem:

does anybody have a solution???

video depicting the problem: the stars in the background will not move relative to the fighter that is moving

@zeldarules28: Go

can't, i just tried, bcz the skybox is a sphere, not a flat surface

@DrSuperEvil: Go

sorry, i dont understand, could you elaborate? thnx

perhaps i can imitate the space background with water instead? is it possible to texture water?
