Environment map Y axis flipped for cube maps
« on: April 04, 2014, 12:37:09 am »

I think this is an old issue, but while working on the browser plugin I came across this problem and would like to see if this'll get fixed.

For cube maps, Up (+Y) is actually used as the Down (-Y), and vice versa.

There are two different standards for cube maps with the Y axis flipped.  You can flip it with a check box  in the texture dialog.

Hmm, I've only ever come across the other way in other applications. Well, I'll just flip them by default then.

Old one indeed.

Mmm, It seems to me you two are taking about different y-things.
