How does one change the material of a sky dome...when i try changing it in the editor i keep getting a message saying that i cannot interfear with the cooked package... help!
Jodi, I think it's because the material or the static mesh of the sky dome are from one of the preset packages. But it's weird, because I've been able to modify emitters in preset packages, and have it save between computers. Seems a little inconsistent, but maybe you can copy the material to your own package - make sure you also copy any referenced textures.
this is a bit late, cause i didn't see this question earlier.
But you can change the skydome material doing the following:
-click the static mesh skydome on your level. -click f4 to get to actor properties -scroll down, open static mesh, find material tab -click magnify glass, find a material from generic browser
FYI, if you post something in a comment and want to change it, just delete it using the little trash can icon below the comment, and repost the comment with your changes.
