I am having problems loading the sky spheres into DB off the enhancement pack all that seems to happen is the screen just goes the useual blue colour when nothing is on.
I was wondering if there is a specific skybox/sphere command or a size that is advised to be used with the scale object command due to draw distances.
Thanks in advance HiveMind.

load image "Skyspheretexture.bmp",1
make object sphere 1,-5000
texture object 1,1

that will make you a decent sized sky sphere, remember to set the size to a minus value!!!
you could move the skysphere at the same time as the player as well meaning you won't have to have such a big sphere but it will affect how far you can see.
