No sorry, that screenshot is darker than I am used to as a wood elf, and why I pointed that out. There's still a difference between race vision, it's just not like the classic extremes.

I played the classic era tutorial the other day just so I could see the classic sky. Thank you for this upgrade Telin.

Hmmmm.... I wonder if this had anything to do with daybreak? Either way, INCREDIBLE!

You mentioned that you "downgraded" night time sky to give it more of that classic look (pixel-ated) Will you be offering a non "downgraded" version that looks 'crisp and hd'?
The amount of time spent in eq, I'd prefer not to look at pixel-ated images, not matter how varying in degrees of notice ability they are.

I take a lot of screenshots of zone's skys due to how pretty it makes the zone look. The sky is a large part of the games appeal for me.

PS. for any of you classic drones ready to attack... I do use classic textures, models and spell effects.

You're not going to notice in screenshots as much. The color of the clouds change colors in a less refined gradient. It's really only noticeable during the animation. I can't do this the the daytime because the classic sky was a texture that combined the sky and clouds, and it wouldn't look right.

I bet there will be a lot LESS Human, Barbarian toons on after the Patch lol. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] At least at Night Time.

Human sight was so bad. My first ever character was a human and I was surprised at the difference when I made a high elf.
