The usual way is to use a sphere or another primitive such as a box then turn it inside out using the 'Normals' tool supplied in your 3d modeling application and texture it with an image of a sky...Then load the .x or .3ds in DB/DBP

I don't use MSN or other messengers,still you can send me a personal message through the realgametools website just take a login out there it's a much more featured forum with search functions and other stuff that aren't really needed.

Oh and yes,you could use a picture with the Backdrop commands but they're for 2D and don't really do the trick nicely.

Have you coded a backdrop?

If so make sure there is a 'backdrop on' line in your code before texture backdrop or something.
