The "Skybox" is a method of creating backgrounds to make a level look bigger than it really is. When a Skybox is used, the level is enclosed in a cuboid (six sides), with specially made skybox textures drawn on it. Most of the skyboxes used in the wc-mappack are not present in the leak, or otherwise were heavily modified during the course of development. The following is a list of skyboxes found in the leak, along with their original versions/possible replacements.

Some skyboxes in the leak are mostly in their original form, but have been modified last minute with filters to make them fit a different style. Possible fixes for these filters are shown alongside the originals.
