Updates to the grass and flags. Couple of other small tweaks not worth mentioning.
Latest version of my track skin\ext_config file for excellent Donington Park 2018 mod from @Brun . This makes significant changes to the track so I can't stress enough to make a backup copy of your current track folder. CSP is required for this to work so please use the original track if you play the base game.

If you currently have a track skin enabled, disable it for the time being before extracting these files. You can always re-enable it after testing the mod if need be. Just extract the files and overwrite anything it asks.

Changes:
-- Added original author's name and version number to the ui files
-- Added geo tags to the ui files
-- Animated all of the flags that were not animated
-- Retextured the grass and paddock areas
-- Darkened the tree textures
-- New VAO patches for both layouts
-- AI sideline tweaks to keep them off the raised kerbs
-- Fixed missing tree shadows
-- Working start lights
-- Tweaks to the night lighting so that the lights turn on when it rains
-- Other small things here and there.
-- I hope to eventually find a way to bring back the mow lines the real track has

If you'd rather not mess with the original track, follow this link to a more full featured version of this mod that's a standalone track. It includes all of these changes plus the 40 pit layout mod from @Paprika that works properly with these changes:

Baby steps, but enough of them to make it better than the last version.

-- Better looking grass color and adjusted grassfx. Still a WIP.
-- Sharpened up the tree textures for better depth and shadowing look.
-- Better seasonal changes. Winter is not as long, fall looks better and summer has a small tint of drying out.

Disable the 'Updated' skin in CM and delete the folder from past version. Extract the new skin and re-enable.
