>any texture starting with sky in quake loads as a skybox texture
>skybox textures 'eat' projectiles and prevent particle effects from appearing on impact for hitscan weapons
>somehow something's gotten fucked up that's causing the skybox to act like a standard texture, including weapons leaving particle effects and having rockets explode on contact
>it's not even limited to custom maps, it's happening in bone-stock id1 maps on a fresh install
