Arrow Head visibility and its skybox

[simio7331 10]

Once thing that I can't stop noticing when I play OA is that the mountains in the background is a skybox texture and not 3D, it always felt fakeish to me. Then I saw this picture of Afghanistan and it changed my mind :eek: .

The backdrop looks just like the game including that fog separating the huge mountains with the terrain.

I released an addon that removes the painted mountains from ArmA2, but as you say in OA the painted mountains are actually quite effective :)

If you're not conscious of the mountain texture the game looks great. But once you realize it its just an overwhelming 2D texture above the horizon.

The Skybox in OA looks really great to me. It adds to the Atmosphere

I liked the Chernarus skybox, but the Arrowhead one has a habit of floating on top of the fog at the end of your view distance. Looks really fake when it does that.

It could be alittle higher in resolution it doesnt look good when you're using optics and it comes into focus...

Yeah, I tried flying towards it in a plane for quite a while but it never got any closer, ha ha..:)
