Fixed Mid Ohio Skybox issue

Hi Guys

Since updating to the latest version of Game Stock Car with the updated shaders and skybox the Mid Ohio (Virtua_LM track) skybox was broken. For me it was just showing the night skybox complete with stars. The road was perfectly lit as if it was daytime.

Anyway I managed to fix the issue by editing the SCN file with a text editor and changing these lines

change
//-------------------------------------------------------

MASFile=Virtua_LM_MidOhio.mas
MASFile=Virtua_LM_MidOhioMAP.mas
MASFile=COMMONMAPS.MAS
//-------------------------------------------------------
to
//-------------------------------------------------------

MASFile=Virtua_LM_MidOhio.mas
MASFile=Virtua_LM_MidOhioMAP.mas
MASFile=COMMONMAPS.MAS
MASFile=CloudsMed.MAS
MASFile=SkyTropicalHaze.MAS
MASFile=Sky.MAS
//-------------------------------------------------------

then at the bottom of the file change
//-------------------------------------------------------

Instance=skyboxi
{
Moveable=True
MeshFile=skyboxi.gmt CollTarget=False HATTarget=False
Instance=Sky
{
Moveable=True
MeshFile=Sky.gmt CollTarget=False HATTarget=False
}
}
//-------------------------------------------------------
to
Instance=skyboxi
{
Moveable=True
MeshFile=skyboxi.gmt CollTarget=False HATTarget=False Render=False
Instance=CLOUDS
{

Moveable=True
MeshFile=skyboxi.gmt CollTarget=False HATTarget=False
Instance=Sky
{
Moveable=True
//MeshFile=Sky.gmt CollTarget=False HATTarget=False
MeshFile=SRPL_sky3_dome1.gmt CollTarget=False HATTarget=False ShadowReceiver=False
MeshFile=SRPL_sky3_sun1.gmt CollTarget=False HATTarget=False ShadowReceiver=False
//MeshFile=SRPL_sky3_moonwithglow1.gmt CollTarget=False HATTarget=False ShadowReceiver=False
}
}
}
//-------------------------------------------------------
You have to do this for each variation of the track but now it looks great. Hope that helps anyone else with this issue.
 
Mid Ohio updated to v1.21 already exist, with new skies, new atmosphere, roadshaders...

I think they are 2 different versions? OP was talking about VLM version and i think your version is taken from Simraceway?

edit: just tried out your v2.2, looks fantastic!!

I'm not sure, maybe you're right Marc. I have no idea where this version was taken. It has 2 variants, with and without chicane. This is the loading screen...
