It shows the textures of the outside in the 3D window, I have set the sun color to a light yellow. But Im not seeing the outside texture when I run the camera out of the house to look outside. Advise please? Im running Commerical version 6.11.4

I could probably help you after I see exactly what you are talking about. "Read not to contradict and confute, nor to find talk and discourse, but to weigh and consider."

Update to 6.31.4, the latest public release. The update is free. 6.4x, currently, is only a public beta so it'll have bugs. Edit: Now I get it. That's the background color. If you want to change it, use a sky definition and a BMP, PCX or TGA file or add this in your code, likely in your main function (change the numbers to suit your needs though): bg_color.red = 64; // close to the color of the sky bg_color.green = 128; bg_color.blue = 255; Last edited by ulillillia; 04/15/06 18:29.

It'll be removed from the engine someday and is already out of the manual(except old syntax).
