Got Dover night. I believe its properly installed. Went to go fly and the terrain is dark (cool) but the sky is still blue (uncool). In the read me Poodle says I might need to get a beta from Michael. Is this the problem? If so then where do I get the beta?

Yes BULLET, you need the latest beta, which can be had at http://www.dragonseye.com/FSBeta on the Download page. (don't know if I would have been able to find that URL for ya if I hadn't downloaded it already )

You will have to run the APP.EXE in order to see it correctly. (You can rename it, of course! For example, SDemons1.5.1.exe or FSCbeta.exe)

Also if you're making your own missions, you have to go in and edit the text msnEnvironment list... the details are in the DoverNight README.

OK, once you do these things, you will no longer have a blue sky, but you'll probably want to change the ambient light and infinite light settings using SDOE Control in order to make things a bit darker all around.

Hope this helps

App.exe is the name of the FSC (Fighter Squadron Compatible) 1.5.1 beta executable.
It's not really much of a patch, really like a new FS but it uses your current files and folders. After you install the beta, assuming everything installed correctly, App.exe will be in your Fighter Squadron directory.

O.k. that app.exe question was stupid. You guys gotta bear with me. I'm a graphics guy and if it doesn't come from Adobe I start getting confused. Thanks for the help Reaper everything appears to be cool.
