I've only ever seen it as a mod conflict. Was everything completely deleted before the re-install?

Yeah completely removed everything.

I used JSGME to install the open hatch mod, the 16km vis mod and a couple of others. removed them all through JSGME to see which one was the problem.

when i put the 16km vis mod back on it did it again.

I repeated the process, but THIS time when i got the 16km vis mod put on everything worked fine. very wierd. its working great now.

Good to hear it.

Actually, I enjoyed playing with the black sky for a while. Gave the game a sort of surreal feeling. Still, I was glad to get a bit of sun again.

If you have Sh3Comm already installed, always rollback Sh3Comm before you install additional mods (such a 16km mod).
