yeah im doing some stuff but im having a real hard time making the sky in sidewinder look like night time. i replace the dusk sky bitmap with stars and it replaces MOST of the sky its just theres some big pink chunks here and ther and also big chunks of regular sky too. i cant find any other bitmaps that i could replace to fix this. can anyone give me some advice?

Hi , you need to swap the sky dusk bitmap with the ui/shell/bitmaps/black,and you will have a completely black sky with stars. :wink: Have fun

well that went ahead and replaced all of the sky so that got rid of the normal spots, but there are still huge pink and purple squares all over the sky. does anyone know how i can stop that?

Well I don't know what happened to your sky,BUT I do this and do not get the splotches, START with a new map,it may not fix what you did before :idea: . THIS WORKS just fine for me. Get a new cache003.map and try again.

does anyone have any idea how i clean off the sky to make it not have those pink spots? keep in mind that i stuck the bitmap on a fresh map file and it STILL had the pink spots.

i got that too when i tried to write funny messages in the sky... i dunno what causes that but i think the bitmap gets corrupted somehow
