Skybox Generator 
Recently a really cool skybox generator was released... but it took me fucking forever to figure out the right orientation. So here's a cheatsheet and a link to the tool to help you get started -

It should be easy to figure out, make sure you save as a .tga file and the asterisk is what you name the skybox. 
 
That's very cool!

What do rt, bk, ft etc. even mean, though? I've never seen an explanation anywhere. 
Right, Back, Front Maybe? 
 
 
Basically you need to name the file ending with those things. DW is right, it stands for right back front etc. 
Pretty Awesome. 
Nice, quick skybox generator. 
 
fifth, the _ isn't necessary, or you're going to have to specify your 'skybox' in worldspawn with an underscore at the end of the name.

also, front/back means x+/x-, left/right means y+/y-, and up/down is z+/z-. (or more likely some daft never-tested rearrangement of same.)

dn=down
up=up
ft=front
bk=back
lf=left
rt=right

yeah I was so excited that I had figured it out that I insta-posted my findings... There are definitely problems. However, it's probably the most helpful thing I've done in a while :P 
 
I had to write down my own thumbnail 'htf do u skybox' guide for the source engine in my notebook, because they're all mirrored left to right as if projected from OUTSIDE the skybox and not the viewer, and also north is upside down and east and west are both rotated 90 degrees.

To Be Fair.. 
Even Valve struggles to get their own skyboxes correct. If you turn the graphics down to minimum in L4D2 then the skyboxes disappear because of missing texture errors... 
'Even Valve' 
Hm... I saw how they did their path finding solution. They're incredibly good at some things and have massive knowledge gaps in others.

I think I own most of their games though, so just ignore me. 
 
Right. Valve make great games but have god awful tools. It's always been that way... 
Molten Texture Mapping 
 
Oh my ... 
 
that's awesome 
 
...what is it?
