How can I make a realistic sky?

| All I have as a sky right now is a flipped plane with a cloud texture (and not a very good one). I was wondering how you can make a layer of clouds before the sky and things like that. Do you just make a second plane with the blue being see through? |

| You can do it that way, but also do a search for skyboxes, skyspheres/domes etc. Terragen can help and a program called Skypaint: http://www.skypaint.com/ There are many ways to make skies. |

| check out the castle demo. It has a nice skybox. |
| ||
| skybox with animated cloud plane will be nice solution |
| ||
| Yes and then you do something like move the UV values to give the effect of the Clouds moving across the sky. |
| ||
Buy Terragen and use textures created by it applied to a skybox. You can get it to look like this: Note: the sun is not part of the skybox. Its a free-floating textured quad and its appearance changes slightly as the camera rotates. |
