I put the folder and ini in the DataPermMods folder, launched the game, new game, sky is all one color. (Using dynamic btw. I KNOW my pc can handle it) So I exit the game and add: "enhanced_sky 1" to my cam.cfg (not sure if it matters where you put that line in the cfg file; I put it in the middle) saved it, launched game, new game, same problem. Wtf?Using the GOG version if that matters. Why can't I get it to work642503356b361Xegoog

#17 Report Quote Reply 17. February 2013, 03:53:08 642503356c2d8Have (definitely) followed all instructions, also using SS2Tool v5.0. Nothing but a blank orange sky.Unless... does it all go in DataPermMods folder? Or does the cam_mod.ini file belong somewhere else? Don't particularly fancy overwriting my current one just in case. What about earth.mis.dml? The instructions only state what to do with the FAM folder. If FAM placement is all which is required, I'd suggest removing other files from download and uploading as separate download if they are some kinda source files.Have been playing modded ss2 for years but now MM is no longer an option... gonna be subjected to a lot more born-again-n00bs like me!642503356c363Shinobi
#18 Report Quote Reply 17. February 2013, 03:58:00 642503356c3b7Oh for crying out loud. My apologies, I did NOT follow instructions. Although my question regarding other files stands.642503356c44dvoodoo47

#20 Report Quote Reply 17. February 2013, 11:25:59 642503356c580It's ok, managing perfectly fine now thanks to the great advice on here! I feel like such a newbie. Have been using this site for about 3 years and playing SS2 for 10, everytime I leave it for a year or two and come back, there's more great content (and even more modding methods lol) to be found.Only still struggling with Vurt's mods, unfortunately.642503356c67abuddy
#21 Report Quote Reply 15. March 2013, 13:23:00 642503356c6ccI'm having trouble installing this mod. I started with a fresh install of GOG version SS2. I ran SStool5.0 with default settings and updated. Then I installed my mods. Reading this thread I have the clouds95.dds file in DataPermMods\FAM\skyhw\clouds95.dds. I put enhanced_sky 1 in cam.cfg located in root folder. Didn't work. I tried every possible thing I could think of; I extracted the newsky folder in DataPermMods, I deleted the cam_mod.ini from DataPermMods, I deleted the cam_mod.ini from the root folder. I merged the two cam_mod.inis. I copied/moved/replaced the earth.mis.dml file, etc.I don't even care about this mod. It's not like this is a map for a mission. I'm just walking across to the building lol. I just want to make it work. 642503356c75aDrowning witch
#22 Report Quote Reply 15. March 2013, 18:52:57 642503356c7a0this is how i did it. added enhanced_sky 1 to cam.cfg in root folder. put cam_mod.ini in root folder.put earth.mis.dml and FAM folder into datapermmod folder. voila, it works.642503356c82abuddy
