Changing Sky Color

[Neiv]

I've done all I can think of to change the color of the sky in fearplane. It's red, and doesn't respond to either GM commands or DB changes. I've gone so far as to copy all sky, clip, and fog settings from southkarana to fearplane, with no effect. Why isn't it responding?

Ha! I tried to change sky and fog in Umbral Plains =)
I can change to sky to anythign I want and but I cannot change the fact that time of day is hard coded into the zone - and even with night sky and black fog- the ground is stil lit as bright as the sun =)

BTW anyway knows how to make fog in zone VERY intense- like during the rain WIHOUT causing the effect you cannot see another wall and it becomes filled with sky graphics - cuase produces very wierd effect of emptiness

So then, the sky in fearplane is hardcoded into the zone as well? <sigh> I just finished setting all zone points to new connecting zones. Looks like I have some redundant work to do with a new zone.

#zclip 100 (or however close you want) 1000 (or however far you want)
then
#zsave

The first command sets the fog clip plane and the second command saves it to database.


For sky , its #zsky 2 for the normal sky. play with numbers theres not as many as there use to be then use the #zsave when you get what you want.

Thanks Sak, but I already know the gm commands. The problem is, they are ineffective from clearing the sky in fearplane.

Ok then, Always have to start with the simple solutions.

Here is how to fix fearplane sky

go into your C:\Program Files\Sony\Titanium\Resources\Sky folder and find the
WEATHER.ini file, COPY THIS FILE then in the original file do a search for fear and delete anything to do with fear and save it then you will have a normal sky in fearplane


Also by looking at that ini file you can figure out how they have set those sky up and set them how you like for a different effect that you may like !

As Skat said, try doing something like #zclip 200 1000, then #zsave.
Now, to aviod seeing the sky instead of fog, I use #zsky 0 (I think its 0. Maybe 1?) and then all the emptiness becomes fog. You can also change the fog/sky's color with #zcolor command. Then #zsave.

I used this to create a clastrophobic zone where you cant see anything. Very cool =D
