Singh's Background Emporium

Mobius:
Ah...so I guess most skybox textures are in dds format so I can't see them.

karajorma:
Wrong way round. You'd see .dds. You wouldn't see TGA or JPG unless you added the command line.

Ryan:
This is going to be a very, very stupid question..

But how do i download some of these backrounds i see in the screenshoots? And put them in FRED?

Dark Hunter:
What I did was I copied those gigantic amounts of text and put them all into a .txt file. Then when I wished to use one, I copied the data from that file into the mission's Background section using Notepad (Notepad can open and edit mission files easily enough).

JCDNWarrior:
Interestingly, one of the maps i made was popular primarily for it's background (As well as the action), which i had to do semi-blindly in Fred2. After extensive testing and fixing I found that it worked great. I don't mind having to do it all blindly though.

Usually i don't really need more than 20-25 nebulae's, tops. I'm amazed that the random way of adding numbers can get such amazing results, however.
