Because the skyboxes dont use an FPE file to assign textures you'll need to UV Map your own textures to a cube mesh. It can get quite complex as you'll need to make sure there everything is seamless.

most panoramic games use a cube so start here:
https://sourceforge.net/p/pipmak/wiki/Making_Cubic_Panoramas/

there was a tool for FPSC to make skyboxes called CloSk_Skybox Creator_V1.0.0, it comes with the free download of the engine
pano2vr can convert spherical images to cubic or cube cross
once you have a textured cube use the sky_basic.fx

the issue might be seams
