backgrounds

[chobopeon]

i imagine this has been asked and answered before, but i can't figure out how to make an image my map's background. any help? (despite knowing better) i tried to make it layer 1 and everything else a higher layer, but this doesn't work because my plane is underneath.

help?

What you want is a parallax view. More here: http://vapor.nimblygames.com/forums/showthread.php?t=16

Also--may worth be opening up one of the official maps (just double-click the *.altx file) to take a look at how things are set up there.
