How do I use a custom made sky using steam?
Yes, Im sure there is an easy way to do this, but I'm still kinda new to steam mapping...

Just place the .TGAs and .BMPs in <modfolder>gfxenv and it will work. In hammer write what you wrote before the ft/bk/rt...ect in the pictures' names.
Example:
[b]mysky[/b]ft

There's absolutely no difference from WON to Steam afaik. The .BMPs are not necessary for anything.

There are two different file types for a sky map.
8 bit uncompressed bmp files, for those without 3D accelerators, and 24 bit compresed TGA files for those with 3D accelerators.
