Ok so here's my output log file: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B89Kwx ... sp=sharing

And just an FYI; the layer I'm assuming is the transition one changes height based on where I look in the y axis.
Check out my patch to remove nudity, it's a WIP but it's coming along quite nicely.

I know it'd really unlikely, but could it be the different skies messing it up? As in was this mod designed to work with the enhanced skies but never tested with the vanilla ones?

It was tested with normal and enhanced sky, not sure what goes wrong here. Have to find a way to reproduce this on my system.

From the screenshot it seems like that issue is clearly not from the terrain transition ring. It must be a camera stack issue. Maybe recent changes to playeradvanced have to do with it. There is a new smoothfollower class or something that was not there before. Main camera has moved in the scene hierarchy. Unfortunately new code changes already broke a mod before I remember. Enhanced sky was broken due to a code change a few month ago. Interkarma had to test revert a change to make it work again.

But the problem can have another reason as well. Are you testing with live build or github newest?

I have been able to reproduce the issue changing fov. It works fine at default value of 65, but the problem arise with higher values.

ok, this of course breaks the mod, because fov is not propagated to camera stack.
Just out of curiosity: why would you change fov?

I think user "username" is experiencing a different issue, or is there also a fov different than 65 used?

I tested on my system, it works with both enhanced sky on and off (with fov 65)

can set it on my todo list for next version of mod to propagate fov - but not sure when I get time to work on the next version
