Your appreciations and your enjoing the mod are worth the long hours we have spent on it!

The reason I ask is just to make sure you haven't made other changes. I did not re-download the mod that you recently re-uploaded that supposedly has your hotfix incorporated.
No, I didn't make any change, neither the the hotfix nor to the re-uploaded version of the mod. You can work on your last merge

Yes, this task is in the todo list, but you shouldn't feel forced to it. Indeed, if you are kind enough to undertake it, I will not refrain you...

Which one to use?
I am really pleased by your meticulousness, Captain America!

If memory serves me well, those duplicated settings date back to Real Environment, that this mod was freely based on. Stoianm was the one who spent hours adjusting environment colors settings, so I ignore wether the double entries are leftovers, or if they were introduced on purpose. Nonetheless, while editing the skycolor fix I opted for the first option and, again IIRC, I removed each second entry of duplicated settings, supposing that cfg files are read in sequence from top to bottom. There is an easy method for ascertaining the truth of my assertion: open EnvColors_Temperate_luv.cfg and EnvColors_Temperate_A_luv.cfg, and put on top of each SkyTopColor entry the following (duplicated) entry:

SkyTopColor=FF000000

According to my theory, the top of the sky should become red. In any case, repeat the experiment, this time putting the above row below each SkyTopColor entry. In this case, unless I am wrong, the new setting would be ignored.

If the results of your test are reversed, then my theory is wrong, and the second setting overseed the first one. I would be relly surprised to discover that the two colors are blended together, demonstrating that the some settings were duplicated on purpose
