lol, so we do seem to have different tastes, huh?

Well, of course I've never seen your map with any of the 2 skies I meant, so I can't really judge what it looks like.

Maybe you could fire up Photoshop and "brownify" one of them, though?



Roses are #FF0000, violets are #0000FF // all my base, are belong to you.

oh NOOO carp! 8o
that sky doesn't fit with the rest of your map at all!
the map is WAY too bright and the sprites are WAY too green for that!
that would look like as if a winter weather just came over a spring/summer vegetation!
I preferred the blue one much better, I liked the "california school for the rich" side of it...

Yeah ... i hear ya !
I need something a little less blue though.
Something summery, but more "arid" than "wet".
A little more yellowy that the old blue one, for sure.
Maybe.

then make a deeper blue, instead of adding yellow.

The higher you get in the blue, the hotter it looks
If you wanted to make a warm & wet weather, you'd go deeper into the white instead

well, IMHO

Sure Carpenter, I will try to make a such one.

Edit:
Here is the result:


I would like some info about how you would like your sun, lighting, terrain, cloudscape and athmosphere.

I reverted to the old flfsky9 for now.
That's pretty cool looking, Zacker !

I would want a really flat landscape though, so that you could only see sky above the school walls everywhere.

The blue should be like the light blue in the top left corner of this picture.

The sun position should be the same as this too (in the ft position).

I think the clouds should be slightly more yellow than white.



Cheers duder !!!

Take a look at the new one, it should be better. I changed the pic in my previous post.

Looks much better !
The cloud color is PERFECT !
The sun seems WAY too big to me though.
Could you make it about 1/8th as big as it is now, & just partially obscurred by cloud cover ?
(Like the edge of a cloud is just touching it.)
The blue should be more pale too, possibly done by adding more fogginess ?
(I forget the proper terragen term for it.)
Also ... I think a prarie landscape would be better suited to the school setting.
The mountains would look weird, looking out the windows.

Cheers duder !
You rock !
