I found this animation, it would be so great for Daggerfall http://roflcopter.udof.org/dfsky.swf its a whole day cycle
I would really love to, that would be interesting artistic experiment. Unfortunately my free time is coming to an end and I'll barely have enough to finish Desert City Walls.quasifex wrote:I was assuming you are too busy with other things, but if it's not a big deal for you, i will happily handle this job to the proVMblast wrote:Hand painted skys (and clouds) would work better with the original Daggerfall's style and atmosphere...however, someone needs to paint them...
If you didn't know the skies are actually procedural, and I'm pretty sure the lens flair is an option.quasifex wrote:I recently tried this mod and want to share some of my ideas:
1) With sun of this size, Tamriel would be a scorched land! I think it should be decreased in size.
2) Is it possible to replace skybox in this mod? In comparison with vanilla, skybox in this mod seems bland and empty to my taste. I can find some HDRI skyboxes, or maybe even try to make a handpainted one (similar to ones from 2000's games like Outcast and Giants:Citizen Kabuto, colorful and with dramatic huge clouds).
3) Why sun flare was removed? I think it could be made optional in mod settings.
4) Post-effects such as sun shafts would suit well with this mod. I made some research and found that there are free sun shafts scripts for Unity on the net. But since i'm not a coder I'm not sure i can implement them myself.
5) Is it possible to create some kind of mask for skyboxes to make sun hide behind clouds?
They are, and, it is....Interkermit wrote:

I like that! 2nd screen I added in a EDIT does not work as great Id say during the day, the overcast sky doesnt work well with the bright coloured ground and folliage, it would need a hint of fog... with that implemented, both versions would be greatHazelnut wrote:God, it looks like classic U.K. weather!
