Why is the sky always black? Even during daytime the sky is black.

Turn skies on dude

Skys are on. Everyone I have talked to says skys are black in most zones. Maybe it is the default UI I use is bugged. If you are saying the skys are normal in every zone.

Yeah skies are normal for me if i turn them on. I usually run with them off.

It has to do with the new resources folder included with the updates. Most likely your loadscreen isn't working as well? I would try copying the old resources folder back and see if that takes care of it. It worked for me during the last patch, but I haven't tried it yet for this patch. I will do it today and let you know.

Figured it out, we've been derping the entire time.

If you open up the resources folder in the new download you will see that it really only has 1 file in it. Compare that to the previous resources folder you had been using, which has all of your weather, skys, loadscreens etc. I had copied the new resources directory into my EQlite folder overwriting my old one, when in fact the only thing you need to copy is the file in the folder from the download, and NOT the entire directory.

Sorry to keep ya hanging been really busy. Where do I get the old resource folder? When I look in my current resource folder I have: globalload.txt, normcude.dds, power.dds.

That's because you overwrote your old one. Thankfully I backed mine up, not sure where you can get a copy of the old one.
