Atmos - Day / Night and Weather Modification

Atmos 2[github.com] is now Open Source and a work in progress, community contributions are welcome. Once it's stable and more user friendly, this workshop addon will be updated and switched over.

Patch Notes


Garrysmod Day / Night and Weather modification.

This is a complete rewrite of my previous addon Atmosphere for garrysmod 13. It has been coded to try and support as many maps as possible, use the new env_skypaint sky shader functionality and be easier to work with for administrators and players. This is a very early version that is missing some planned features and contains some minor issues.

For the best outcome, the map you try to use with atmos will have a light_environment, env_skypaint, and env_sun, although alternatives are implemented if the first two are not found.

Settings area is under Spawn Menu -> Utilities -> Atmos -> Settings

For the best experience it is recommended that you leave the settings at their default values.

The best way to change the current time is to simply use the DNC Length slider under settings, move it far to the left and watch the time change and move it back far to the right when you reach your desired time. Alternatively, simply use atmos_dnc_settime 0-24 (0 is midnight).

If you enjoy this addon, please give it a thumbs up as it really helps new people find it in the workshop.

Problem: Stars Dont appear or skybox looks like its cut in half.
Fix: Update your DirectX and be sure that your video card supports atleast DirectX 9 and Shader Model 2.

Problem: Almost all ground textures are black
Fix: The server needs to increase its DNC Length value, having it too low will cause lightmaps to not render correctly.

Problem: Time does not progress or the skybox doesn't update.
Fix: Make sure atmos isn't paused or that realtime isn't enabled, and if it is not, this means there is a conflicting addon on the server. You will have to find out which addon is breaking Atmos and remove it or ask the author to make it compatible.

Problem: Snow doesn't look like it does in the video
Fix: Enter these console commands to reset their values to the defaults, or run atmos_cl_reset

atmos_cl_snowdietime 6
atmos_cl_snowradius 1200
atmos_cl_snowperparticle 20
atmos_cl_maxsnowheight 300

Problem: The server I'm playing on doesn't have working sounds or materials
Fix: The server owner needs to update their version of Atmos to atleast 1.1 or use the workshop version. You can find the version of Atmos on the server by using the console command atmos_info , complain to the server owners for not using the workshop version of Atmos.

Problem: The settings aren't saving!
Fix: This is an issue with garrysmod's CVAR system (console variables). The best way to avoid it happening entirely is to put your desired atmos settings at the bottom of server.cfg
