These are the only Portal 2 Skybox's you can use, unless you make a custom one.
And I personally, never got the sky_l4d_c4m1_hdr one to work.

Portal 2 does not support a 3D skybox.

The OrangeBox games do.

Yes it does, Valve even uses a 3d skybox to add windows to the factory levels.

Thank you for responding, I probe the Skybox sky_l4d_c4m1_hdr comets and looks weird ..

You only have to change the Map> Map Propieties right?

I have no doubt whatsoever that you're right, but I think there's some problem where 3D skyboxes just show up black when looking at one through a portal. Maybe that was just in Portal 1 though.

Doesn't Portal 2 follow the same guidelines for making a 3D sky box in any other Source game?
Just create a smaller box outside your map with a sky_camera inside. See the VDC: http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/3d_skybox

Wouldn't have a clue what the 3D skybox would do when you look through portals though.

Portal 1 developers: 3D skyboxes do not render properly when observed through portals.

The fact that the VDC page says Portal 1 rather than just Portal probably means that the 3D skybox through portals problem was fixed in Portal 2. Either that or nobody has bothered to test it yet in Portal 2 and submit their results to the VDC. At any rate, here's the example picture from that VDC page.

Actually I think if you search for "skybox" in your texture browser the texture will come up with the orange to blue fade and all the destroyed buildings.

Hello.

Since the projection used skybox with "sky_camera."
I used the original sky "portal 2"
I followed a tutorial that herein, does not work well if Portal2 but L4D2; perfectly.

Any ideas? someone managed to create a 3D sky properly?

Test Portal 2 - Sky: sky_fog

Test Portal 2 - Sky: sky_l4d_c4m1_hdr

Test L4D2 - Sky: sky_l4d_c1_2_hdr

Happens to Portal 2, anyone got a 3d sky?

Tutorial Assistant and my VMF for both the Portal 2 as L4D2
