Is there any tutorial for environments??

I've tried to do the spherical environments and the cube environments with dire results, is there any tutorials out there?
I've had a look but to no avail.

P.s. my help on the PLE dosen't work for some strange reason which I cant resolve using the "if help dosen't work" icon

If anyones got any help on getting the help to work that would be great.

Cheers guys

you might wanna check that the alias service is running (assuming your using a windows box).

First off Task manager should have a process called Wrapper.exe running. If its not running on my machine I find my help kinda stops.

Check to see if the service is running by running services.msc from the [Start]-[Run] box. The maya service is fairly close to the top and on my machine is named "Alias Documentation Server".

If your like me and streamline your machine for speed at booting, and get rid of all thoses extra procesess, you may have mistakenly switched it off.

Good Luck!

:edit:
Just to make it sure, I dont know how to help with the sky environments, but this post may help with getting 'Help' to work.

I think he means like -- skyboxes.

Assign your skybox(or skydome) material to the incandesense... if you have it on "color", it changes varying to color... incandesense doesn't. Though you may still need to "light link" and remove all lights from your surface if they're coloured lights.
