Turn off Skyboxes?

So, at the moment when you place a map, you often will have a purple, blue, green etc skybox as the background. To turn this off, you have to edit the map and then save it with the basic 'black' style skybox. Is there a shortcut around this, so that I don't have to edit all the maps?

Not a fan of non-black environments! Aha

ART_CFG.h file in Data directory

...
int DETAIL_4_main_show_background = 1;
...

Change that to 0 and you shouldn't have those skyboxes. If you use some other than highest graphics level, adjust the appropriate row instead (DETAIL_3_main_show_background, DETAIL_2_main_show_background etc.).
