Yesterday i went out to walk in the park, there was a lot of Duck's :lol: and other animals,but i found this on the sky:



So i make a dicision to make third version of my mod .

Here's texturelist.






Instalation
-Chose one of 16 cloud shapes from texturelist... open folder by number -> CLOUDS256.TGA
-Chose one of 3 cloud noises ... cloudnoise.tga

- Put it into Mods/Mapmods/Maps/_Tex ... dont forget to backup
OR
- Rename textures and change the load.ini of a map you want to change the sky.


As a result you will have this:





:!: :!: :!:
So mates DONT FORGET TO CHOSE ORIGINAL SKY TO YOUR MAPS - > IT will make IL-2 more different and impresive. :!: :!:








It better use with
(The link is inoperative)
with clouds on 2900 and hazy - pure

This mod better to use with
(The link is inoperative)
or
(The link is inoperative)
And use RA_cloud mod :wink:

So I'll make a combination cloud mod soon.


So ...With best wishes from RUSSIA :wink:

Looks very promising if I must say. Very dramatic with the high cirrustratus layer. As a glider pilot I always appriciate a good rendering of clouds 8)

Keep up the good work

[chas1963]

i want time to check this out...it look cool.

[Guest]

looks real good. Last two shots especially.
Thank you.

Which folder in your files is the one that changes things. Or do we add this to another mod?

[fly_zo]

Sir Bender,
First, let me qualify myself by saying that this minor critique of your clouds is in no way an affront to your no doubt obvious creative ability, and so i hope you will find no offense. Secondly, I'm a professional artist, both self-educated and a university degree-this is showing my qualification and is not meant as a form of pride or self-flagellation-and most my work is multi-media, minus computer art and an emphasis on colored pencil. To the matter then, your clouds are an attempt at a billowy, fluffier since of fullness-kind of a classic, Romantic Period a la Caspar David Friedrich, John Constable, et al. The problem I see with it is its use of over-shadowing or too many shadows, and the placement of the shadows. By using too much shadow the clouds tend to look more like smog, perhaps dirtier is the word without negativity. Perhaps I could kindly suggest that subtracting some shadows and placing others in the main cloud formations where light is less likely to penetrate. There are some grey clouds that are floating by in one of the pictures, which makes it look like smog. These minor clouds or wisps of clouds would have, if not directly behind the main clouds, direct sunlight leading away from the grey scale of the wisps to small mostly white ones. Perhaps lighter greys and perhaps experiment with other colors since most clouds are not much white nor much grey. Clouds have a tendency to carry within their voluptuous bellies a larger body of color. Lastly, I sincerely hope I've not perturbed you in any way...if so my apologies.

Incredible !!

Are you able to lighten the color of the sky at high altitude ?

[RRuger]

I don't like it :lol: Just kidding, looks awesome Bender, we'll give her a try, thank you :wink:

Got a question for ya Bender, will this MOD work without any of the cloud MODs and just with the game clouds?
