I'm asking because I get checkerboard sky. I'm running in software mode on Zand 3.2 for Linux.
Load order is skulltag_content-3.2-beta2.pk3, then SuperSkulltag_v2e.pk3. If I reverse this order,
Zand doesn't start it at all.
---time passes---
As long as I have you on the phone, this item outside the left window at the entrance is unknown:
Map02 now, and there's more red ! diamonds:

The mod is currently intended to be “OpenGL only” at the moment. My apologies. Those <!>s are 3D models which can’t be rendered in Software so the <!>s are placeholders until we get sprite replacements for all of the trees, cars, etc.
The checkerboard in the sky is an OpenGL skybox which also cannot render in Software. I can address this with a clientside script that changes the sky to a texture for Software players. Thanks for bringing it up.
Btw a few maps also use sloped 3D floors which will not render at all in Software.

That’s normal. Any mod that uses DECORATE inheritance must be listed after the wad/pk3 it inherits from. In this case, it’s Skulltag, which has had all of its assets contained to skulltag_content-* in recent years.

Thanks for clarifying.
You
were informed that this was an OpenGL-focused project, just for the record.

All he meant was that you were reporting bugs when the mod clearly states it's not going to run well on the software renderer.
