Time/Weather Options

hmm, we could start doing it visually by implementing a composite skybox.

right now my vdrift data is hopelessy out of date. but if i were to get the latest (which is preferred now same old svn or git??). then do hand painted alpha on all the non-terrain parts of the skybox...

...then someone makes a clear-sky skybox (not that hard)...

...would we then have very rudimentary day/night/clear/cloudy support?

if this is desirable i'd be happy to do it. just a bit of a trudge through all the track skyboxes. my guess is, that if it messes with anyone's ip that we just revert that track...but maybe we just give the images new filenames like: composite_sybox.png. so if someone's ip feels infringed we just delete the derivative file.
