hi there @ruffaz, can your mod be used as educational purposes?

Enjoyed this mod a lot on Deer Isle, does anyone know if this works on the Pripyat map or if there are any plans to add future compatibility ?

Update : added Sakhal, Antoria and Green County.

Banov is still incoming, not sure its supported full time anymore and I'm having trouble overriding it for some reason.

@Admiral_Cringe thank you for your kind words. I would love to spend more time enhancing dayz atmos, and I have created some more ambitious makeovers https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_P4R3ykSlNE but I work fulltime as a game dev, and my energy for this is low sometimes

@AXER I could, but then other people who like the fog, would ask me to put it back.

@chilliy <3

Hi Ruffaz,
i love your addon i used it for years.
i changed the map on my server to "Green County" , is there a chance you could add it please ? <3

ty very much

is it possible to remove the "fog" near costal areas?

thanks @ruffaz

@ruffaz, I really like your mod sir. Do you plan to continue working on improving atmospheric immersion? Maybe you are planning some other mods related to visuals?

I got super busy irl, so no updates for some time. A few changes incoming soon, including sakhal, rostow and probably banov. Some minor bug fixes.


@ThatGuy 1.28 compatibility confirmed, for me locally anyways. There's a lot of servers running this mod, I havent had any other reports of lag. 1.26 weather settings were reshuffled so potentially? Skyz is literally a texture swap, so not probable.


@Лютобор I could override the sky in winter Chernarus V2, but it would be dependent on mod load order which is up to server owner

Is anyone experiencing server lag (red server icon) running this mod? My players are telling me whenever it is cloudy or the weather changes, the server starts chugging. I'm not sure if this could have any impact. Also, @ruffaz can you confirm to us if this is still working on 1.28?

does this work on Chernarus?

@RJ MacReady English, motherfucker! Do you speak it?

не понятно почему не даеш на перепаковку в пак серверних модов.отдельно ставить небо как и кодлоки не удобно

Anyone else having random server crashes caused by this?

The mod for winter Chernarus V2 has been updated, now there is the Sakhal sky and SkyZ - Skybox Overhaul does not work. Is there a way to fix this? I use the Winter DI map, but since it is based on WChernarus, the sky there is now also Sakhal.

I tested this mod on 1.27 and it seems to occasionally crash the server. Will this be fixed sometime?

Hello. I couldn't find any Discord contacts to contact you. I wanted to discuss the terms of repacking your mod. Constant updates are good, but I don't have the ability to monitor the server 24/7. And an unexpected update can disrupt and paralyze work. Please consider repacking your mod in my modpack. I am ready to discuss the terms in correspondence. Write your email or discord and I will contact you. Thank you.

can we add sanov map please

One night I saw a square moon on livonia. Otherwise the sky is very beautiful! Thank you!

Ok ok I'll add Sakhal XD.

@wedajam this mod doesnt change lighting at all

@Richard W. Looking into it

Yes, please add Sakhal. Or is it compatible already?

Hi Sakhal please

Is it possible to make the nights darker, or are they shifting from night to night ?

Would you consider making this compatible with Rostow?

Does this mod work for namalsk regular? I have installed the mod, but there are no changes

Any change for Esseker?

Will Sakhal be added?

Can you make this work with the no fog mod? Or is that now possible?

Is sakhal going to be supported as well?

@⛧Їжачок⛧ of course :)

@E M Y just do what you need to do - have a look at how I did it. it's not difficult.

Friend, I have a request - I'm not asking for permission to repackage your mod, I'm just asking to use it on my server (not steam).I bought all the modifications, but I didn't find any paid options like yours - beautiful clouds. I hope for your answer

I'd like to modify my sky to make a personalized one. How did you do it?

LOVE it and learned about it thanks to DJ. Added with great pleasure to DarkMoon server.

Bitterroot now supported

@Nitro I dont touch lighting settings - this ones on the other mod to fix.


Fix incoming for Bitterroot shortly, just in testing.

I see that this mod is being used on bitterroot by very popular servers .so i guess it works on bitterroot.am i correct

Yes that one ruffaz. Any other way to make night somewhere between 0 and 1 settings?

Would also be interested in using this Mod on Bitterroot Map, Is there any plan on making it compatible?

Hi, on map Bitterroot i just have "normal" grey Sky without visible clouds on high overcast. I think this is just on Bitterroot, on other maps your Mod works fine. Whats could be the problem? Thx.

This one @nitro? https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2406573933&searchtext=not+so+dark+night

It causes a black sky anyway, even with skyZ unloaded.

I have conflict with "not so dark night" mod. Night looks ok but in the day time im geting black dome in the sky. Any idea what i could do to fix it?

but i can use it on my own server? in mods colections? i dont wanna repack it, i wanna only use it on the server, i can?

@jusalik why wouldn't it be free? just don't go repacking it

hello how can i buy whis mod for my server? or this is free?

@futureaye modders discord. look for my skyz posts https://discord.gg/RJQn5tr7

Map makers and server owners feel free to DM me though the usual channels. hey mate where can we find these usual channels?

Works for Bitterroot

hello bittteroot files are live now. i would love to run this mod on there

just wondering, i experience a lot of visual/light flickering, with flares, chemlights, etc. is there something i may have done incorrectly?

@! I'm looking into this. Interesting.

Sure does! @The Villager
