I noticed some campaigns use what looks like a full-sky background of dense and realistic stars. How do I add this to my missions?

In FRED:

Editors ---> Background

Near "Skybox Model" write "starfield.pof", without the quotes. You need MVPs to make the effect work properly. :)

No problem.

In order to improve the effect you may wish to set the number of retail stars to 0, they look odd if put together with the starfield's ones. I think one of the new SCP additions automatically solves that problem. :)
