Creating animated backdrops
by Mark Sowul


Alright, when you want to make an sw animation with bCAD, and you attempt to set the background (stars?) with the background option when you render, it doesn't move and looks crappy, right?
I thought of a better way, why not make a mesh to be the background? A giant sphere with a star texture looks fine (check out my sovereign animation!) Anyway the process is simple, make a sphere (pretty big-check out the bCAD block attached-it should be sufficient) and put the center at the center of the scene. When you animate the star background will move with it.
