Is there a way to add a skybox to my FG map? It's very weird to go into 1st person/tabletop view and stare into the void of blackness above.

I'm not sure if they can be used in that way but the Town and City map pack has sky backgrounds. I haven't played much with the graphic stuff.

can you screen shot what you mean and also show the NPC picture tab?

Here you go. As I said I don't know if these work as you expect. They would be attached to the maps, but as I said I'm not au fait enough with the way the 2,5 D works in order to show you a screenshot. This isn't something that would be attacked to a token so no point in a screenshot.

Your asking for a screen shot suggests that you are asking a different question than what I'm thinking; so maybe you should provide a screenshot showing what you mean.

Skyboxes are not currently supported. I couldn't find an existing feature request, but you can add one here: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/featurerequests/featurerequests.php

Accidentally posted twice. Anyways, I'm not reporting an error or anything so I suppose requesting this to be added as a feature would probably be the correct thing. 64038

No you're correct. I'm trying to make it so that in the camera view when they look upwards they see something else besides black colorless void.

I think currently what you have to do is put a wall at the edge of the map that has a camera image with it. But as Carl suggested, the best thing would be to put in a feature request as a skybox will behavior better than a wall image would.
