I have this sphere i'm using as a skysphere, if you look at the screenshot, notice the hole in the center, it gets smaller and smaller as my jet approaches it. I noticed the same type thing with a skybox as well, i've also used different images to texture and i still get it. What causes this? again, a screeny is attached and my code is below.

Sounds like your camera range is set too small (or your world is too big).

Use the command "SET CAMERA RANGE" with appropriate numbers to make the range larger. This will mean that more will try to render, so I don't advise using it in a high poly environment.

I just realized i never attached the pic, here it is. I'm expimenting with different camera range and i'll take your advise on downscaling the project, i didn't think of that. Thanks for your help!

That's definately a camera range issue. Take the value for the radius of your skysphere, then add another 1000 to the value to be safe then type in:

Set Camera Range [number of default camera],1,[value of your skyspheres radius +1000]

unless you've used the make camera command, the camera number will most likely be 0.
