Note: Wait! Stop! Before you copy this actor's definition into your mod, remember the following things:
  1. You do not need to copy that actor, since it is already defined.
  2. In fact, it's not just useless, it's actually harmful as it can cause problems.
  3. If you want to modify it, or use a modified version, using inheritance is the way to go.
  4. The actor definitions here are put on the wiki for reference purpose only. Learn from them, don't copy them.
  5. There is only one exception: if what you want is changing Ammo capacity, you need to create a new type from Ammo.

DoomEd Number 9083 Class Name SkyCamCompat


Classes: ActorSkyViewpointSkyCamCompat

This camera allows the creation of skyboxes in a method similar to that of the Eternity Engine. An Eternity map using a skybox can be loaded in ZDoom with a custom MAPINFO telling to use xlat/eternity.txt as the map's translator and a custom DECORATE containing the following actor:

ACTOR EESkyboxCam : SkyCamCompat 5006

The skyboxes in the map will then work correctly in ZDoom. (No guarantee given for any other Eternity feature, including effects that may be used in the skybox sectors.)

The editor number is not set to 5006 directly to avoid conflicts with Skulltag's Cacolantern.
