Summary

0002532: Animated GLDEFS Skyboxes broken in 3.0 alpha versions

Description

An admittedly hacky method of creating a skybox cube that also uses animated textures doesn't seem to be working in the latest 3.0 betas.

This method employs GLDEFS to define a skybox for each frame in the sequence, and ANIMDEFS to use those skyboxes as "textures" for the animation. The result is a skybox that can be affected by scrollspeed in MAPINFO. Demonstration included.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Test in Zandronum 2.1.2.
2. Bask in the spinning, animated FIREBLU glory.
3. Test in Zandronum 3.0-beta.
4. Note the depressing stillness of the rotating sky's walls.
5. Bring down the console and enter: "kill".

Notes
(0013870) Edward-san (developer) 2015-11-22 11:28	Does this happen in GZDoom r900 and 1.8.6? Also, what about latest GZDoom build?

(0013901) Torr Samaho (administrator) 2015-11-29 11:53	GZDoom 1.8.6 and the latest GZDoom build (currently gzdoom-g2.1.pre-1354-gad6ce5a.7) behave the same as Zandronum 3.0. So this is either an error of the wad or a GZDoom bug. If you think it's a bug, please report it at the GZDoom forum. BTW: The console log shows the error "ANIMDEFS: Can't find BOXSKY1".

(0016286) Edward-san (developer) 2016-11-22 12:10	So? No bug report at GZDoom? This is going to be closed if there's no new info.
