Well i know someone has to know. I have tried using the sky plugin form the 60Pgn pack, but i dont know how to really make it work. WTH are u supposed to do with the Radiostiy settings. Also if those dont work i know there is editing the Bitm but last time i tired making it dark it turned out green Cough*Zero*Cough. So is there a hex thing like in H2 thats im supposed to do first?

No, you have to re-run radiosity in sapien\tool.

Extract the lightmaps and edit the brightness\contrast settings.

We PMI'd the swamp sky and also the swamp fog from map C10.
Then I used the sky plugin to reduce start distance to 0 and set density to 0.95. Also, recoloured the swamp fog to adjusted the radiosity, to make it slightly more red, and a lot less "swampy"

If you want the exact settings, open the map in HMT (but dont forget the swamp sky/fog)
