Strange Prob with Sphereical Sky

[handyandy2003]

Ok, heres the deal. I am ceating a fly through camera for a render of this scene. When I put a sphere sky in it messes up the light/shadows. I have used this method before witout any probs. I have turned off cast/receive shadows on the sphere and excluded the sphere from the light but nothing has made a difference. As you can see the liught is well within the sphere (no mater how huge i make it it still gives the same effect.) help!

hi pal,

1st of all disconnect all light with that Sphere, then make a new Ambient light , disconnect all other Object fron Ambient light.
Now Ambient light is just connected with that Sphere. now render the whole scene if Sphere is grey tone. then just . increase the diffuse of Sphere ...... I hope will have the good result
