How do I use a skybox and render texture?

Question

Hello,

I have a camera with a target texture (render texture) and a skybox. The render texture is also assigned to a "Raw Image" UI component.

Trouble is the skybox is not working properly in this setup. It looks as if the the raw image is transparent or something.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks! alt text

Hey @wbl1! I found a solution, you need to add a material (Unlit/Texture) to your RawImage to display the skybox correctly. This might generate some other problems if you use UIMasks but else it works perfectly.

cheers.

Great tip @Nerevar $$anonymous$$y skybox is now rendering properly on my RenderTexture, I now have the issue that you stated where my mask is no longer working since I added a material to my Raw Image. Is there a way you know of to both render the skybox properly while still using a mask to trim the RenderTexture?

Thanks, Ian

Use skybox in camera options.

For if anyone is still looking for this answer in 2022, and using URP: I had some success with setting the shader to the new material to UI/DefaultETC1
