Hi all, can anyone recommend me a good Skybox mod that works in harmony with ProMods? I liked Improved weather by BlackOpen but I found the night too dark, and for some reason the cab view was darker too, making it impossible nearly to drive at night!

I used Improved Reather until I updated to 1.14 and now I'm waiting for the updated (non-HD) version. The screenshots look promising.

I also tried Realistig Lighting - and extracted just the skybox/weather. But for some reason my black truck shines in green/blue/red due to an overdozed reflection of the sky.

I am using IWR 4.0 and I am happy :) but it improves whole graphics, not only skyboxes..

I might give it another go, I used 3.5 so 4.0 May have improved!

Sounds like a good mod :lol:.

I used IWR too but it just did some weird things with the lighting that I didn't like.

Yeah I've gone back to it but the cab is still too dark, the dash lights are definitely dimmer and the headlights are useless-pointing too far down. It's bizzare how someone can make such a fantastic skybox mod, then completely mess up other visual elements.

I personally use Realistic Lighting, I like the skyboxes and the streetlights
