It's rainy season in South Korea.....(I wanna see blue sky!!!!!!!)

 

I'm enjoying blue sky with my SFP1 these days, however, I need more blue in SFP's sky.

 

Is there any good patch for deep blue and clear sky? (with beautiful clouds, tjat will be better) If you know one, please let me know...

Some deep blue SF sky potential can be seen here ~> http://bbs.thirdwire.com/phpBB/viewtopic.p...sc&start=16

 

...and here (scroll down though) ~> http://bbs.thirdwire.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=2780

 

 

You can get almost any atmospheric colour effects you wish in the ENVIRONMENTSYSTEM.ini file in the Flight Folder's FlightData cat file. Study it. Learn it. I'm working on my Masters Degree in Environment System Modding.

 

 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is NOT a final or even beta "mod" but my current state of Enviro experiments...

 

For starters, extract your file and delete all the text, and totally replace with the text below...

 

(*) You may need to extract the FLASH.tga file from the FlightData cat file, and copy it into the Effects folder. Or, it may work directly from the FlightData cat file. I have a FLASH.tga in my Effects folder and have not tested if it really needs to be there. I am using FLASH.tga in molding a larger sunglare. Otherwise, the stock Enviro does not use this tga file.

 

(**) NOTE: to shorten my Enviro by half and make my Enviro easier to work with, I deleted all text declaring the 26 "camera" lensflares except lensflare027, as I never use "photo camera" lensflares. I then re-named lensflare 027 to 001 and use it for sunglare (it was the stock SP4 spikey sun effect and NOT really a camera lensflare). You can replace all the lensflares at any time from your own stock Enviro file from the cat file and still use them if desired.

 

I'm can't remember if any changes here require changes in other files, but I don't think so. Test it and poast a screenshot. The cirrus clouds (and contrails) are a different subject, but the sunglare effect is buried here in the Enviro file.
