I'm trying to setup an outdoor scene in Lightwave, with some objects in the foreground and an image map of clouds in the background. I'm having trouble with figuring out how to set up the background of clouds. I've tried making a huge rectangular plane in Modeler and using that to map the cloud image on. Of course, if I make it big enough so that I can move around in the scene and not run out of background, the cloud image is too big and pixelated ('zat a word ?). If I use "Background Image" in the effects menu, it's no good because the image follows the camera around. Any ideas ? Thanks.
