A handy little util for previewing skybox texture sets without having put them in a wad. Has a fullscreen mode which gives a pretty good view of how skybox will look ingame.

I would figure NSEWUD would have been in that list for name conventions. Guess not. Oh well, a little renaming never killed anyone.

I only had a quick look... does it allow for different games handling the various faces of the skybox differently? Having spent a bit of time ripping skybox graphics, there doesn't seem to be a consensus on how the graphics should be displayed with reference to orientation etc.

I've been using it for Halflife and Quake 3 skies and it's worked fine. It won't do 1024x textures however (does 512x and smaller).
