You want skies without mountains for desert battles? Here ya go...

[Monty]

Lets start with a picture which say more than a thousand words:

What i did was the following:

For this test i used the CMBB high resolution clear day skies made by "Undaunted"

You can download it and the other high res skie mods ( dawn, dusk etc) from the Combat Mission Mod Database.

Beware: Back up the default skie files before you copy the new high res. skie files into the CMAK Bmp folder !!

I am planning to use "batchfiles" to switch with one mouseclick between the default skies WITH mountains and the high res. skies WITHOUT mountains and back.

The high res. skies have small hills in the distace, the hills are a bit to dark for the desert battles i think, but it can be altered easily ( i think, i am NO modder at all ).

Any comments ?

Ok, i did the same with the CMBB high res. dawn skies:

Default skie with mountains:

High res. skie without mountains:

Now we need a modder who make the hig res skies also WITH mountains,so we can choose which we want to use. Hint...hint...

Good idea! The Mountains in the background had bothered me for El Alamein scenarios.

Yes

After using the high resolution skies, i think i use them for all battles.

I will wait for modded high res skies WITH mountains

I made some batch files to switch between the 2 skie files, if somebody is interested in it, mail me.
