Black Sky Horizon

[Telin]

Select Zones suffer from an ugly black horizon from where the sky box isn't stretched out enough such as in East Freeport (I have new water in too):

From playing around with the files tonight I was able to fix this:

I was hoping players could report which zones have this issue, and perhaps I could start fixing them and send you guys the file.

It looks like you just removed the clip plane fog entirely?

You're right, I overdid it. My goal was more like this:

And what I'd really like to see is this where the sky meets the water:

You are right. Its a problem thats existed in the game for over a decade now - since they upgraded to DX9 back in like 2004. The clipping plane used to just cut away against the horizon. They later added in some fog that became increasingly more prominent the higher up you went. The following two pictures demonstrate what i'm talking about - they are both the same spot in EC.

Unfortunately i'm not too sure there is any real way to fix it.
