Simple edit the mountain image in your data dir, or even replace it.

The mountain image is client-side.
To make it appear that a map has a different mountain texture, you'll need to create a skybox for the map.

a skybox example...

Post by optic delusion »

when testing skyboxes, you need to have ALL SIX IMAGES ABSOLUTELY PERFECT
If you have 5 good ones, and the sixth one is not perfect, you get NOTHING.
take a working skybox, and change one image at a time, until you have six new images. work on 1 at a time, testing after each change.


there are 5 other sets of skyboxes at http://cbg.bzflag.org/images/A-Delusion/skyboxes/

Take a look at my Defender game mode concept.

Thinking is not an automatic process. A man can choose to think or to let his mind stagnate, or he can choose actively to turn against his intelligence, to evade his knowledge, to subvert his reason. If he refuses to think, he courts disaster: he cannot with impunity reject his means of perceiving reality.
