The best sky textures????

**Curtis** · 09-19-2004, 06:12 AM

Hi Folks,
Can anyone suggest what are the best sky textures created to date for fs9, I have tried a few and am unable to strike a good balance. I often see so many sceen shots posted in various forums and the sky looks awesome but i haven't been able to acheive an acceptable texture set to date.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Regards

Actually the sky textures that come with FSwater at flight1 are amazing!

Hi,
"Actually the sky textures that come with FSwater at flight1 are amazing!"

You can do it yourself with a paint program, fswater sky are exact default fs2004 sky with only 20% less saturated.I recommend fs9skytext.zip they are more realistic on color on day and everything. I never saw any dark blue in day time in my life.

Those are some great screenshots madmatt, thanks for the info, never heard of "Blue Sphere" so i'll give that a go too.
Actually i have FS water and it's very good but i'm in two minds about the sky textures.

Have you tried fs9skytext.zip? I think those are quite nice. They are not as saturated as the default ones and I like the way they look brighter near the sun and darker elsewhere.
