Sky display problem in Thief 2

Sacrond on 3/12/2013 at 23:00

Hello to all. I have created some mission with quiet big environment, but I stuck at sky display problem, when I save mission as thief 2 first mission and load with thief, or when I load it with dark loader, in dromed game mode it displays normal. I tried several things, smaller environment area, delete many objects, change sky, wheather color, sky rendering mode, sunlight, enable/disable sky details, fog, changing properties in cam and dark cfgs, I even tried deleting all brushes and objects from mission, creating only one room with sky and starging point only, and etc. nothing helped. In thief it displays as blue screen instead of a normal sky, and in dromed game mode everything appear normal. I have never such problem with any other mission. Who can help?

I have enabled sky details : high, fog : on, weather : on in thief options, I still got blue screen instead of sky in game mode.

Are you using NewSky:Sky ? or a Sky Box?
The best thing is to take a screen of your sky settings, as it looks like Horizon Color or Glow color is blue. I will post some of mine using NewSky:Sky, and you can compare them.

thank you, sure, but why when I play mission using dromed game mode all is good, as on first screenshot, and it displays blue in when I play it with dark loader? It both must look like at first screenshot, it's kind of a bug I think..

Try to disable Stars. Change everything in the star options to zero.
Add: to NewSky:Sky Glow latitude 45 and Glow longitude 180
Change NewSky:CloudDeck Cloud texture from 0.50 to Alpha to 0.15

thief original game mode
it don't display cloud deck, stars and celestial objects, just blue screen instead of that all

2 days ago everything was good when playing it trough dark loader, I just made some changes with objects, and no changes with sky and rendering settings, but after that something paranormal happened with the mission, it looks like thief failed to render the sky

I will post my settings from Cataclysmic Revelations which is quite large. Equals more than 2 fms in one.
