Anyone got a good 'skybox' or two we can use? POF and image would be appreciated.

Spacebound, Flip. Some nice starfields with maybe a few small background nebulae would be lovely, in particular.

Why's that Phreak? Do we need a much bigger skybox POF or something?

if you're running T&L then they wouldn't work since the normal background bitmaps aren't drawn with T&L.  its not really a good idea to enable it, disable it. then re-enable it (to draw everything else)

Also, the skyboxes centre themselves on the targetted object, so it jumps around all over the place. I think this will probs be fixed by 3.6 :)

I'll see what I can put together for you Sid.

Flipside :D

Ok, this is a very simplistic one, they'll get better as I do more, it was more to make sure the mapping etc worked, but it's a start. I tend to rely on the ingame stars, else it looks a bit odd when you turn with some blurring and some not, but they can be added to the image if wished :)

Flipside :D
