Env Map and Sky texures

[Grei]

How do you apply sky map, and Env map textures, when I try to apply them they don't show up when I render the scene. Can someone please help me out.

Thanks

F6
click the world button(texture for world)
add new
load image

in world settings
paper on and hori on.
In render settings sky button on, it should be on by default.

What the "env" button does is makes the object seleted "NOT" render, sort of creating a hole. (Setting the alpha to zero)

There is two purposes I use this button.
1) Rotoscoping...
Using the scene in "Video Seqence Editor," and after applying the "alpha over" effect be able to render ontop of an image or video. But in order to render the Sequence you must enable the "Do Seqeunce" Button in scene options (f10).

2).........

Thanks j, I got it to show up on the background. Does anyone know how to work the Env Map textures, also j, is there a way to get the world texture not to show up in the background, but to show on a reflective object
?

hmmm maybe try enabling "Premul" in the render menu... THat doesn't delete the backgourd, but makes it not render.
