Can someone tell me what the "black sky" problem looks like in F1RS? I
think I'm experiencing it all of the sudden. What I'm getting with ver#
1.09 is what seems to look like the sky kind of shaking or moving back
and forth with big black blotches. This is happening randomly but so far
only at the following tracks:

Brazil, Europe, Spain and Argentina

I running with a Creative Labs Voodoo2 w/12 megs and latest drivers.

Thanks,

Sal V.

It looks like he whole sky is black. Not blotches.

When I upgraded from one version of F1RS to another several
months ago, this was long before 1.09, I found the track, and
the surrounding ground, to be made up of broad black and white
stripes that ran transversely to the track, which was hard to
find, except that the stripes followed the contour of the
ground.  

   It was kind of cool, but hard to drive.  

   I un-installed, re-installed, and then patched.  Everything
was fine.  

   I've never seen any kind of sky problem.

This problem was fixed in 1.09. It occurred under certain circumstances when
a saved game was loaded in a championship when the weather was 'variable 5%'
or so.
The sky was completely black, so you don't have that problem!
