I like the look of your new Sky textures Kiwi, think I will give them a go also, thanks.

Is ther a all in one PTA preset for 2.60 we can use?

Awesome work Kiwi! Would also love to have a PTA preset to go along with these new textures if possible.

There should be one in the zipped folder.

Hello Kiwi I truly love your sky textures! Absolutely stunning! I want to ask you a question regarding the scattered sunlight effect (which btw is amazing) I find the sunsize to be kind of big (2072) and I’d like to tweak it down to 900. I’ve tried several tweaks but still no luck. Any chance you could help me with this? Thank you and keep up the good work.

Absolutely *LOVE* these textures and PTA presets! Having multiple sets to choose from really increases the amount of variation, especially when you throw ASCA into the mix.

Thank you so much for creating them and sharing them with the flightsim community. Many of these sets blow the ones that come with commercial utilities out of the water in terms of realism and variety. Great work. :)

Any shots closer to dusk / dawn when it is much closer to night?

I recommend an excellent job: Pilot Pete`s PTA Preset. Preset perfectly fits to any textures of the sky.

For the glow effect, I made new textures and fixed "suneffect.cfg".   Now the sun will not have large dimensions near the horizon (screenshots under the spoiler). Download can be from here.

Not very well understood your question. If you ask about the glow of the sun, it disappears when the sun approaches the horizon line. I can not fix this. This is a feature of the simulator. If your question is about specific sky textures "VITRUM", then a screenshot under the spoiler:

Hi kiwi,

looks amazing, i need to disable ENVTEX sky textures and install your sky textures into ASCA + enable dynamic sky in order to make it work?

thanks!
