I need help with the previewer application (built into the map editor: windows > previewer).

Is it possible to change the color of the stage background?
and also, my models are displaying at their lowest texture quality. How do I toggle to a higher texture quality?

Thanks team!

I do not think this is possible. You can change the terrain texture it uses for ground level but the background I think is fixed. You can probably import a backdrop for it (sky model) but that still does not really change the colour. Do remember that as the colour is solid, you can just use a fill bucket in a postprocessing of the image in an image editor program.

File -> Preferences -> Video
By default it uses ingame view quality but you can overwrite it to use better.

Be aware that texture quality is also controled by your graphic card drivers. You may have to improve the quality that the graphic card is set to render textures at. How this is done depends on the make of graphic card you have.

In Nvidia cards this can be found in the control pannel under manage 3D settings when in advanced view.
