How Do You Add Weather To A Map With No Weather?

Post by Twinbird24 »

How would you add weather to a map with no weather. I'm trying to add snow to Zanzibar, but when I add the sky from a map that has snow and put it into Zanzibar, the weather doesn't show up. Is there some way to do this? Do you have to add chunks or something? Thanks.

We don't know how to add weather to maps with out it. I think a new version of entity(un released) might have it, or shade might be close to getting it.

Yeah. Ok. I'll just mess around with it and see if I can try and get it in the map. What if I add the weather by dragging it from another map and 'spawning it through Netgame Equipment? Would that work?

Edit: Damn, I though I had it for a second, but the map froze, so adding he weath through Netgame Equipment won't wort. And I can add it in the scnr tag or anything, scine I have no access to it in maps with no weather. You probably have to add chunks and do something. But what if you add chunks to the sky tag and replace the added chunk with weather, i'm going to go try that right now. Ok, nvm, that didn't work either. I'm all out of ideas, you got any?

We don't know, otherwise it would be possible.

I see. So you just need to find the certain reflexive you need to add chunks to and you can add weather...

heres a thought (probably wrong) but some skies have fog, fog that moves, we could probably edit the fog to be rain, or somthin, or maybe add chunks and have both?
