Spots in the sky?

[zhephs]

Hey! I'm Puppy and I recently got a new parcel of land, and I noticed that in the sky sometimes there's a decent amount of black spots. It's kind of annoying since I had a really nice view but now it looks kind of dirty. Any reason this is happening?

I'd try a different Windlight setting. There's a Windlight bug that makes the stars turn black behind clouds. (Stars render black against lighter coloured night skies and against clouds when ALM is enabled. ) (Thanks to Whirly for listing that in another thread). Some Windlights seem to be more susceptible than others. I usually don't see that.

Added: There's a star brightness setting in Windlight. I generally have that set to zero during sunsets, so the stars aren't there to shine through. As I said, try other Windlights.

Went in-world to look at settings.

OR change the current Windlight setting so that there are no stars (you usually have to slide in the MORE direction before you can turn them down to nothing).  I hate those Pacman stars so I almost always have the OFF

LOL. That's why my tag says "Windlight (R) Queen" .  Glad it was an easy fix.

Thank you for this. My gx card has only reently become good enough to run with ALM on and it's amazing (or depressing) what things have started to look strange
