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.

@ruffaz, I really like your mod sir.:steamthumbsup: Do you plan to continue working on improving atmospheric immersion? Maybe you are planning some other mods related to visuals?
ruffaz  [author] Jun 10 @ 6:06am 
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?

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?
Лютобор Mar 9 @ 8:45pm 
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. :steamsad:
El Würmél Mar 5 @ 11:12am 
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.

One night I saw a square moon on livonia. Otherwise the sky is very beautiful! Thank you!
ruffaz  [author] Jan 22 @ 1:17am 
Ok ok I'll add Sakhal XD.

@wedajam this mod doesnt change lighting at all

@Richard W. Looking into it
PapaOurs009 Jan 21 @ 2:32pm 
Yes, please add Sakhal. Or is it compatible already?
Gamb1t Jan 20 @ 5:40am 
Hi Sakhal please
wedajm Jan 8 @ 4:26am 
Is it possible to make the nights darker, or are they shifting from night to night ?
Richard W. Nov 27, 2024 @ 5:42pm 
Would you consider making this compatible with Rostow?
SNTS Nov 24, 2024 @ 11:40pm 
Does this mod work for namalsk regular? I have installed the mod, but there are no changes
magnagatti Nov 21, 2024 @ 1:19pm 
Any change for Esseker?
⎝💀⧹BRICKTOP⧸💀⎠ Nov 21, 2024 @ 12:52pm 
Will Sakhal be added?
freesenterprise Oct 19, 2024 @ 12:50am 
Can you make this work with the no fog mod? Or is that now possible?
Gravel Oct 18, 2024 @ 5:41pm 
Is sakhal going to be supported as well?
ruffaz  [author] Oct 11, 2024 @ 3:04am 
@⛧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.
⛧Cympak⛧ Oct 10, 2024 @ 3:27am 
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
ᴇ ᴍ ʏ Oct 2, 2024 @ 5:04am 
I'd like to modify my sky to make a personalized one. How did you do it?
Endergoth Sep 28, 2024 @ 3:33am 
LOVE it and learned about it thanks to DJ. Added with great pleasure to DarkMoon server.
ruffaz  [author] Sep 19, 2024 @ 3:55am 
Bitterroot now supported
ruffaz  [author] Sep 17, 2024 @ 4:44am 
@Nitro I dont touch lighting settings - this ones on the other mod to fix.


Fix incoming for Bitterroot shortly, just in testing.
samboo898 Sep 14, 2024 @ 9:13pm 
I see that this mod is being used on bitterroot by very popular servers .so i guess it works on bitterroot.am i correct
Sage Sep 8, 2024 @ 11:54am 
Yes that one ruffaz. Any other way to make night somewhere between 0 and 1 settings?
FreshData Aug 23, 2024 @ 10:11am 
Would also be interested in using this Mod on Bitterroot Map, Is there any plan on making it compatible?
d3RfR34k Aug 23, 2024 @ 5:16am 
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.
ruffaz  [author] Aug 21, 2024 @ 4:24am 
This one @nitro? https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2406573933&searchtext=not+so+dark+night

It causes a black sky anyway, even with skyZ unloaded.
Sage Aug 19, 2024 @ 10:54pm 
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?
jusalik Aug 11, 2024 @ 5:48am 
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?
ruffaz  [author] Aug 10, 2024 @ 5:18pm 
@jusalik why wouldn't it be free? just don't go repacking it
jusalik Aug 10, 2024 @ 4:45pm

ruffaz  [author] Aug 8, 2024 @ 5:34am

applepie Jul 31, 2024 @ 11:42am

ghost of reserve Jul 30, 2024 @ 5:58pm 
just wondering, i experience a lot of visual/light flickering, with flares, chemlights, etc. is there something i may have done incorrectly?
ruffaz  [author] Jul 21, 2024 @ 3:56am 
@! I'm looking into this. Interesting.
ruffaz  [author] Jul 20, 2024 @ 3:52am
