Maybe I am missing something.... I installed EVSHADE and nothing is happening. Their owners manual shows nothing basically.....Any special settings in V5 has to be applied?

I have V5 Folder enabled...global quality as Normal....sliders at the right side doing nothing. I believe I have to save and install  (green button) but still no changes. I guess it doesn't work for me.....

Did you press the install button to the left on their menu? I think it's the red one. For now it works with just the basic weather in V5. Edit, sorry, green button.

Id like to know can I turn OFF HDR luminance adaptation effect for P3Dv5 with Evnshade (like it was in PTA)?

I have it installed and Evntex when you hit the green button you should see the spinning loader can take a few mins to complete.

Yes you can tell when it's loading it can take quite a while. Yes you can turn off truesky, you might like it even better with envishade.

Try this to make sure:

  1. Disable TrueSky
  2. Disable EnvShade (disable and restore option in EnvDir)
  3. Clear shader directory here: <%appdata%\Local\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v5\Shaders>
  4. Run P3Dv5, take a screenshot
  5. Enabled EnvShade
  6. Clear shader directory
  7. Run P3Dv5, take a screenshot
  8. Compare screenshots

ENVSHADE doesn't have luminance adaption. It's the main reason I run it. It drove me nuts with stock v5 for the week I didn't have ENVSHADE.

It appears from what I am reading here and elsewhere that TOGA is dead when it comes to support. However, I am giving it one more try with my existing installation which appears to work. I have it activated with AS and ASCA. But, no matter what setting I try, with or without TOGA activated, I have a band of lighter sky along and somewhat above the horizon. This is the case with or without EA and VC, either both, or none. Is there a solution for this issue, which seems baked into P3D v5.3 no matter how shadings are set.

Secondly, do any of you know whether RD PRESETS  fills in the sky completely when  AS produces a cloud filled day, with or without precipitation. Thanks for your help

I think I found the answer to my issue. The solution was found within AS. There is a setting to "disable default haze layer" I had it set to False. Checking the box to activate and make it true, gave me what I had been seeking...The setting depends upon whether VC is activated or not. In my case, I always have it on.
