Cubemap

A Cubemap is a special type of texture that contains 6 individual 2D textures for each side of a cube. Cubemaps can be used for environmental reflections and skyboxes. The cubemap importer supports and automatically detects different layouts including row, column or vertical/horizontal cross layouts. You can also use equirectangular panoramic imgages or provide 6 separate images files with the postfixes front, back, left, right, top, bottom.

Cubemap textures can't be created like other files, they have to be imported with FxFile.Import and the FileType 222.

cubemapID = FxFile.Import(222, "c:\\MyFolder\\MyCubemap.png", "");

Files

The default cubemap is located at Programs\Foxel Studio\default.fxlcm. Other imported cubemaps are stored as shared files in Shared\Cubemaps\ with the extension .fxlcm.
