What kind of color do you prefer ?

you can change it with:

backdrop on
color backdrop colorvalue

colorvalue example: rgb(0,0,0) for black.



Do you need a complete FPS,3rdPS engine ?? Or a collision command libary?? well here it is:

Though it is very useful when testing due to seeing the blue show through cracks in joins etc.

Not if you have DBP, no.
Texture backdrop is deprecated. If you want to have the same effect, use a plain, texture it and position it back a long way, or use a skybox or skysphere.

Ollie,
You need to practice patience. No one will answer if you act rudely or impatiently.
Waiting merely an hour and demanding an answer is not especially polite.

It stops the camera positioning itself when you load a 3D object.
