It should be there by default 

I wonder what is the problem of making the sun as 4.5? If I use the old sky.

Why your Virtual Cockpit is not active I do not know. Do you have one with default planes ?

Do you use a Camera Addon that has its own camera views ?

This is what I see when I open camera.cfg.....Above t hat one is just - COCKPIT-. I use chase plane so not sure either. Should I remove all (//) or? Any Idea. Let me know please.

And BTW, I applied to texture, I can't believe I learned something finally. I use ENVTEX, ENVSHADE (finally got her going) and SF. And indeed clouds look much better. Still battling with the darkness at night and it bothers me really.

Also, only Virtual Cockpit Camera in Camera.cfg is this one:

How did you get sun so big and bright.....?

Alex 

how comes that i do not find any enfshade entries in cloud.fx ? I injected enfshade and textures to p3d and all the paths are correct !?

I asked SIMUL about sun and moon and they replied that those remain fully customisable. No restrictions through SIMUL. And you see the textures in the truesky/textures folder which you can change. But once EA is loaded sun and moon look again the same.

REX Sky Force  has many beautiful options in  P3Dv4,5

But nobody knows how to get this in P3Dv5

Oh.....V4.5, I thought you had managed to make it in V5.....I am definitely not happy with weather, clouds, sun.... above 20000 ft. Also high ALT at night are not realistic either. Sun as you mentioned is small and dull....I have to say, with ORBX and TS ON,  on a clear day below 10000 ft is really stunning....but I don't fly GA. Looks like LM and weather depiction needs some work...and something similar to PTA....EF at least....

Then something is not going well. 
You better un-and reinstall EnvShade...

Looks like a comet 🥳

At this moment we cannot change the size of the True Sky sun or moon. Hopefully this will be possible in one of the next updates..

What were you expecting ?

The update from today fixes only the disappearing shadows that some reported.

The sun still needs to be worked in.

Or, in the mean time try my version ... That is a looking a lot better than this ....
