I think what he was trying to acheive was make the sun and moon get smaller as they got higher in the sky and lost the compair to ground object perspective as it gets higher up but if you evenly adjust the sun and moon in all the sky file drop downs you can achive it much easier that way rather than trying to resize the objects.

I am just speculating here but it seems to me that was part of the problem.
..so does it mean that using your original scene.dat...all will be fine..
..i recognized too that sun and moon were too small with my cameras.dat settings (51 degrees angular angle on bridge, or dummy_cam_conning_deck, which looked just right for me).....i also had tweaked sun radius to 2300 and moon radius to 1800 in scene.dat (there was a thread according real size of sun and moon)... with those settings i had RL sized moon and sun....only thing is that ZMax( the horizon) must be more than 2300 with those settings in scene.dat, or you will not see the sun......
