Yep, double post. Get over it, my topic. :P
I have now finished the skies, I think you guys will like them. I have put up a public beta, so please give some feedback either here in this topic, or with PM.

Also, don't complain too much about the night skies. I know the moon looks pretty bright, but that's the only sky texture I could get that would work well. And the night rain sky is a single tone color, simply because if I tried to do a dark overcast, it would look terrible (friggin 16 bit...). If you have better textures, then by all means, give them to me. :wink:

Also, I have the AR unlocked. This means you can tweak it as much as you want, but if you do, please let me know what your changes are.

GREAT to hear you are back! I tried your new skies and...WOW! They are the best skies I have ever seen!...
I'm amazed that you're back on track with the Revisited V4:D
AND GOOD LUCK WITH IT :)

And for skies: 100/10 :P

P.S: Don't forget about the London Eye if you are doing it. ;)

Thanks for the feedback, Kunal! :D And thanks for wishing me luck!
What do you mean by the london eye? I had it done. However, I may remake it, because it is rather poorly made. Too inefficient in poly usage, and doesn't look the best. Hopefully I'll find the time before school starts within the next few days.

Also, I have added an orangeish tint to the 3 tunnels in SF, just like they are in real life. The 2 pkg parking garages actually don't have that tint, I checked while I was in the real SF. Lucky for me, because I wouldn't be able to change those. :o

Once I get my hands on a copy of mm2, I'll check out the beta (my disk is too scratched to install :().

And about the lighting, didn't you mention that it was done to the psdl blocks and that you can set the lighting for all blocks? I think I mentioned this last time, but it sounds like something that could add more realism if you set it all outside blocks to a certain color for sun, and set them darker for nightime, etc. Might be too much work though.

Hehe, ok hummers. :wink:

And, if you didn't notice, the lighting is already correct. Besides, I cannot set different tones for different times of the day.

Yea, if you we're going to remake it because it wasn't on the RV4 beta I think :? . But yea we will see what the result is this time ;)...
Anyways, Good Luck! :wink:

The RV4 contents only had the additions to the mod. You need both RV3 and the contents to have the full mod. :wink:

Anyway, I have screenshots of the skies now. I left out the single tone skies, since there isn't much to see. (Fog, night rain.)
