When applying a preset, it says that general.fx and cloud.fx aren't original and therefore the preset couldn't be applied in those instances.
How can I restore the respective original shader_backup files?

Un- and reinstall P3D Client..

Hi all, looking for some advice - at sunset and sun rise, the haze effects I have enabled reflect the colour of the sky, as advertised. However, the colour they reflect seems to be that in the centre of my view, leading to some strange effects when I pan the camera (see video). I'd rather reduce the effect of the haze effect as the sun sets, so that this reflection does not happen nearly as noticeably, but I don't really want to turn the effect off, as I like the look I get with it during daytime. Is this possible? Do I just need to turn some effects off? If so, which ones?

Hi!

The Haze effect doesn't affect reflections, just add some haze to scene with coloured fog. The color of that additional fog based on fog color provided by sky texture. 

My suggestion is to try another sky textures.

Cheers,

I don't think it's an issue with my sky textures, as it's not the colour I don't like, but the fact that it is doing it. I was looking through your documentation last night after posting, and saw the stuff about expressions. Is there a way to have the fog created by the haze effect be at one level during the day, but then decrease as sun power decreases (so I can have the fog in the day, but not during twilight, to stop it reflecting sky colours)

It is this effect, in very late twilight I am trying to avoid - there is a hard line between the colour of the sky and the colour of the fog circled on the right, but it matches in the circle on the left. 

Edit: Having restored my shaders to stock to see what this looks like by default, I've realised that this is default behaviour, not something that my tweaks have done. However, the question still stands - is there a way to reduce the effect of this?

I think changing sky textures may solve this issue, no other suggestions.

Okay! Tell me twice, I'll follow your advice :p new sky textures it is

[gamer19 23]

Yes, I believe too that another sky textures could help.

Which one do you use ?

May I recommend Prologue sky textures. Along with his presets.

Work perfectly for me ...with few minor changes to better suit my style. :)

Hi.

I see the new version of PTA 2.11. Before install it I must install the old backup of shaders and after this put new exe and apply new preset?

Hi

It's not necessary. Just replace exe.

Hi Adam,

thx for the preset. I've used it in PTA 2.11, no issues.

But I noticed that p3d is a little bit too dark now, i had to raise brightness from 0.65 to 0.77.
