In rtcw they use flat sky. The problem im having is making the world draw ontop of the sky.

Basicaly id like it as if the depthfunc was set to gl_always, but without the problems that parts of the level would be wrongly drawn ontop of its self.

Wouldn't it be easyer to clear the depthbuffer So you can use the normal depthtest for the rest of the scene.

The sky ist perhaps not drawn as a real plane but the sky faces are rendered with a projected texture.

Clearing the buffer isn't doing anything. Doesn't seem to want to draw ontop of it....

In a few maps they have skyportals, basicaly a 3d cordinate which takes u to a mini landscape, from what i can tell thats drawn then the rest of the world is drawn ontop, so that when u move around u can see the landscape. A pic of the one in Escape1.Bsp is shown below (if u look at pic 2, then pic 4 ull notice the size of the features are nearly the same, leading me to believe that it is drawn first then the rest drawn ontop)
