The RW game used the older Torque Engine..with that Engine the sky works.
BUT not with the newest Torque Engine?!?

But thanks that you would help me...

to jump in here: we are using the latest (well, say 2 weeks old) HEAD version of Torque (and I've tried your sky a couple of weeks ago when you first posted it, and it DID work back then, too..) and it still works!
So if you're not doing anything wrong with inserting it into the mission, either YOUR version of the engine is somehow screwed up OR I just don't know what's the problem... can't somebody else in your team try this? Or download a fresh HEAD version and try it there?
It definitely works in the latest HEAD! (don't know why it shouldn't, there's nothing wrong with the sky...)

*bump*
I'm getting this problem as well when I try to load any skies in the editor. That includes the 2 that came with the engine, as well as one of my own custom ones. All I did was use the world editor and click on sky under mission/environment, entered in the sky material list and got the above error message. I'm using the latest Torque release, as well. Anyone else dealing with this?
