The last 2 scripts are good, you can change the values if you wish to your likeing, if you use the last script to turn the shadows on, off be sure you rem out the

 

--set( "sim/private/controls/clouds/cloud_shadow_lighten_ratio",       0.8 )

 

in the first script

 

thats 2 "--" in front of the line

 

Enjoy

Top picture, blueish mountains is the effect of the script or i.e Sky MAXX/environmental texturing?

[cptCaptain 122]

I think its from the script, 'cause i've uninstalled SkyMaxx.

Hope you guys don't mind me putting this question here.

 

Should I go with the R7 260x 2 Gb or the GTX750Ti 2Gb. These are all I can afford , I can use HDR now with the new CCC 14.2 Beta and in 1600x900 with all my CPU stuff on max except no road traffic and of course only CAVOK / water non / LOD low and CPU to 4.4 Ghz / AI aircraft 18 due to Vatsim , I get between 15-19 fps and this is on a HD 7750 2 Gb still ok but after sometime it hurts the eyes.

 

I honestly love the AMD GPUs as they are cheaper / strong  and perform exceptionally well except the bloody drivers. 

 

Thanks.

I use sky max pro. Is there anything I need to do with the script in flylua, to make sure that it works? Or do I just paste it exactly as it appears, and if it has cloud shadows, they will just be ignored, right?

I would strongly recommend all developers to upload their work on

http://www.xp-developer.com/downloads

 

And of course join, will be happy to have a dedicated discustion category for this and many more projects
