Sky mods as seen on CMHQ? WHERE?!!

[Mikhael]

Holy cow... I want these skies! ( http://combathq.thegamers.net/mods/grass.asp ) look at the winter skies... bloody beautiful!

Where do I get these? I didn't see them in the CMHQ section, does anyone have any idea where I can find those, and other sky mods?

After seeing those screenies, I can't stand to look at the original skies any longer http://www.battlefront.com/discuss/smile.gif

I think the skies you are referring to on that page are the dawn/dusk skies - not mods. You will see them when you play a battle set at dawn or dusk.

Here newbie newbie newbie.
Just could not resist.


And no more crap about me being new too.
I changed names from Shatter50 to Shatter check it out if you don't believe me.

Because oif the way that CM - at this moment in time - shows skies, there will be *little or no difference* in the way the sky looks if you use a different texture.

The sky starting point is too high, so only in the map-hugging camera views does the player get to see the sky.

[TheDesertFox]

Well looks like some of those seem to be Garry Kump´s modded "Skies".

You get them here:

Thank you fox http://www.battlefront.com/discuss/smile.gif

Those may not be the mods I'm looking for, but I KNOW some of the skies in those pics are MOD'd, not just cause they look so incredibly better then anything CM comes with, but also because I've heard people talk about them before.

So n'ah!! http://www.battlefront.com/discuss/biggrin.gif

Pvt. Ryan is correct, those are just the Dawn/Dusk skies.

One or two are from the sky mod at Kump's site. There is also a mine sign mod there too. I suggest you get the sign mod too.

Yeah, you're right, I have looked at those variations, just last night in fact, heh.

Now I KNOW the skies in these pictures ( http://combathq.thegamers.net/mods/terrain/dd/Image3.jpg and http://combathq.thegamers.net/mods/terrain/dd/Image2.jpg as well as http://combathq.thegamers.net/POTD/Stuart_shot.jpg ) are not included in MY version of CM (1.0, I haven't upgraded yet heh), and I know at least some of those are MODS because I remember about someone commenting on the POTD shot.

Someone mentioned the winter skies as being dawn/dusk? Is this included in a later version of CM? 1.05 maybe? I know it's not in 1.0, though... and I'd really like those skies, they're beautiful.

Anyone help?

I checked it out. I came to the conclusion that you are a newbie. Sorry.

Hope this helps.

The skies in your Image 2 and 3.jpgs up there ARE the regular/stock/normal (however you wanna put it) Dusk/Dawn skies, trust me, hell trust us!

However, the one in the Stuart_shot.jpg is an unreleased mod that we've all just seen recently.

The only new bmps that BTS has ever released with patches are the explosion graphics that start with 1.01. New improved explosions have been implemented to the latest Beta patch. But these were currently available as a mod back in September.

Ahhh! So it is. Heh, very embarassing. Actually less so considering how often I charge about like an ignorant rhino http://www.battlefront.com/discuss/wink.gif

My sincerest apologies for not believing you the first time, now off to enjoying the skies http://www.battlefront.com/discuss/smile.gif

(P.S., whoever made that cloudy sky shown in the CMHQ POTD, release it!)

[Pvt. Ryan]

There is a good chance that the sky in the Stuart POTD was added in with a graphics editor. I think that if someone had such a beautiful sky mod they would not be so greedy as to keep it from the rest of us. I know previous PsOTD have included edited backgrounds that were not generated by CM.

[Madmatt]

You will see things on CMHQ that you will see no where else. And I mean to keep it that way. POTD's often have hidden *Easter Eggs* in them of mods to soon come out or mods that I am currently testing....

p.s. There have not been any re-worked (non-mod) skies in a long time though. In fact I only know of three that ever were posted and it was obvious they were customized (a moon, a bright sun and another one).

The recent skies from my POTD's are a mod undergoing testing. Its not ready...yet
