well actually there is, you just haven't found it. Read nickydude's guide from the stickies, it's in PDF format and pretty comprehensive.

Visit my site http://www.fpsmodels.com for models and media for fps creator.

When you download them, they go right into your skybox folder.

All you have to do to get them into your level is simply go into the Build Game properties window, from there...

The "Level Settings" tab: then the "Global Settings" "Edit" tab: and then the box that says "sky", click whatever the previous skybox is, which should take you into another window with a list of folders like "ww2" and "scifi".

The skybox's you downloaded will be in there somewhere, in one of the folders. Just need to find it, and double click the file inside the folder.

Piece of important information on the skyboxes:

After you download them, they will be in the skybank folder. You will need to create a separate folder within the skybank folder for each skybox you downloaded. Say, for example, you downloaded CTY and HIL. You will need a folder for CTY with the CTY skybox in it, and a folder for HIL with the HIL skybox in it.

Why? FPSC looks at the folder the skybox is contained in, and not at the file for the skybox itself. If you have multiple skyboxes in a folder, or multiple sub-folders in that folder, FPSC will not know what skybox to use. Then when you are testing your level, things will look all choppy and stuff. See the following topic that I created on these forums that addresses this:

I did a thread in the chat that tells you the fix.

Answer what? How to get the skybox in your level? If you don't have the "Build Game" option, then your 2 options are:

1. Purchase FPSC. Best option, IMHO.
2. Edit the Setuplevel.ini (is this the correct file guys?) file. Not really recommended.
