Description

A slight tweak to the HL2 skyboxes to make them appear a bit more "toxic" like they would in the leak.

Unlike mods that outright replace skyboxes, this should work in HL2 with minimal clash to the ambient lighting/sun positions, due to using the default textures.

The fog is unfortunately out of my control, as it's controlled by the map's env_fog_controller entity, so you'll have to find another way to edit that.

It's purely a material edit via .VMT files, so it will work with any .VTF texture replacements.

sorry for the self plug, but this is a cfg file that has the right-ish values for the fog. the only problem is it's a cfg file you have to manually run each time you want the fog to look like that. on the plus side, if you uninstall the skies mod the fog won't be affected and will remain vanilla

FF97 was trying to more directly recreate the leak aesthetics with texture replacements & all that. This was just a cheap and easy method to make something that worked in all maps & with all skyboxes. It just applies a $color2 command to the VMT to make it look like piss.
