A mod which adds a complete set of new sky textures, replacing every sky texture used in game. The rain texture has also been replaced. Finally, the default weather has been completely changed, to included ambience and fog/sun colors matching the new textures, full sky rotation, full sun/milky way rotation.
===========Installation================
Unzip the contents of the .rar gamedata folder into your game installation's gamedata folder.
Specifically the sky textures should go in gamedata/textures/sky, fx_rain.dds in gamedata/textures/fx and the weather_default.ltx file should go in gamedata/config/weathers
=========v1.0 Features============
20 new sky textures. Ranging in size from 1024x1024 per side, to 2048x2048, making them 4 to 16 times larger than the vanilla textures. All textures specifically designed to assist in creating the illusion of a sun making it's way across the sky.
New rain texture. Creates a denser and more realistically colored rain.
New default_weather.ltx. This file has been completely redone, Includes much much darker nights, ambient lightening that at all times matches the sky, full 'dynamic' rotation of skies, full rotation of the sun and milky way.
